in reply to MD5 authentication with perl

I'm guessing what you want is for a perl implementation of RFC2617's Digest Access Authentication.

I'm not aware of a server impementation - though its vaguely possible that some varient of HTTP::Daemon can support this. And LWP only supports Basic Authentication for the client.

To be honest you are better off using a cookie based authentiation method rather than RFC2617 which is what most websites implement these days. Take a look at md5-login.pm fr an implementation of MD5 cookie authentication.
