I use Apache + PHP + PostgreSQL + mod_auth_pg, and it's great. I can
give web-dialogs to admin users who administrate the user- and group
tables and I can protect directories (and thus web pages) with
.htaccess.

I like it. Very cool, especially the additional clauses that you can put
in .htaccess, e.g. if you have boolean "active/inactive" columns to
quickly disable users without deleting or resetting their passwords.
