[hobbit] sensitive data

You really need to do some reading up on Apache for this... for SSL, you
need to look into the mod_ssl module, there is a lot of good tutorials
on configuring this.

For access control, this is handled also by Apache.  You need to modify
the Apache configuration for applying basic authentication (or another
model, Apache supports many) to the "/hobbit/" and "/hobbit-cgi/" URL
prefixes.  Note that the "/hobbit-seccgi" implements basic
authentication, you may be able to use that as a model.

The sample file in the distribution, "hobbit-apache.conf", often
installed as /etc/httpd/conf.d/hobbit-apache.conf, is probably where the
action is.

Hope that gives you a start.
