<?php
/**
 * ezproxy_redirect
 *
 * EZProxy requires that the username and password be passed via GET.
 * This is just about as insecure as possible.
 *
 * So, we trick ezproxy into security by opening a socket connection
 * to the server; acting as a browser to initiate the connection; then
 * writing out its response to the actual browser.
