[drupal-support] User authentication script...

Hello everyone,
I'm new to PHP and Drupal and I wonder how hard it would be to write a
script to authenticate a user using drupal's authentication mechanism.
Ideally, I'd like to pass a user name and password to that script and
receive a True/False depending on whether or not that user name/password
matches the ones of a user registered in my site. The script would be
called from either the unix shell or from another application.
In addition to that, depending on the complexity, I also would like to
have a script to check if a certain user belongs to a specified organic
group (og).
Any hints on how to implement any of those scripts? Are there examples
of scripts like those that I could have a look at?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Leo
