Went back and reread your post. You know how to hurt a guy. Kick me when I am down. I hope you still have your stuff together when you are 77. Had not worked with perl since 2003-2005. A long time ago in a place far away.

As a source of unlimited knowledge, I want to ask about access control. My origial program had owm access control stuff in it that intercepted a page request and checked login status before sending request on its way.

I looked on cpan and there were all sorts of access control modules. Can you make suggestions?

What I want is like the page identity I sent you to look at would have to go through access control and be blocked unless the user had logged in.

Don't want to reinvent the wheel
