The module makes it possible for your users to register and login by certificate. Do you work for an organization where certificates are used for authentication? When a drupal page is accessed via https the module checks for certain environmental variables that contain the user's unique information, such as an email address. It then creates a new account if one does not exist or logs the user in if the account exists already.
Features:
Present login link on access denied (403)
Automatic account creation
Automatic role configuration
Current login override

The first official release of this module. This will allow you to quickly upload pictures from your computer to the server. Images are scaled/rotated on the clients local machine, so you don't waste hordes of bandwidth just to upload files that drupal/GD will truncate anyway.
