How does the THW page page handle client authentication, both server-side, and client-side?

It uses cookies containing phpsessionid and thwsessionid. If you're making a bot then use http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/login.php to get these values.

Thanks. I'm writing a WebSocket-based client/server, and I was curious on how you guys did the auth, as then I might be able to make a less-complex system.

Ah, okay. Well, just use cookies to store a unique session id on every person who's connecting to your server and give them a short, but not too short expiration time. You might want to store username and password (as MD5 hashes) in cookies as well, because then the user doesn't have to login every day when he enters your site or when his session id expires due to some inactivity or something.
