Hi Mart-Mari,

I don't think you want to override WAAuthConfiguration to do custom
verification.  Just use a WABasicAuthentication decoration directly. 
So for example, in your root component, do something like this:

initialize
  self addDecoration: (WABasicAuthentication new authenticator: self)

verifyPassword: passwordString forUser: userString
   ("does verification pass...") ifTrue: [user := userString.  ^ true].
  ^ false
