How about we allow using the system user's password instead of a code-server specific one.

The idea is more to use the system user/pass.

We could use https://github.com/Rush/node-authenticate-pam

How about configure basic authentication by nginx reverse proxy ?

@ammario I wonder if this is still relevant?

@sr229 I think so, if we want to enable usage of code-server without an authenticating proxy.

No one really uses remote passwords anymore, only SSH keys.

We should just focus on Google Auth.
