Hello, (*Note Some of this may be considered off topic)
I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction on this.
Basically what I have is a cgi script that I want protected by htaccess.
Not a problem, but I want it to authenticate against a MySQL database. I
looked into mod_mysql_auth but it is not suitable for many reasons
(trouble compiling,breaks other things etc.). Anyway is there a way that I
use a directive in httpd.conf (using apache by the way) to have htaccess
use a perl script to authenticate and then return that back to the
htaccess for acceptance or denial? Sorry if this is either unclear or if
I should be asking this somewhere else (if so tell me and I will not
bother you folks).
Thank you,
Ryan
