Hi, I'm using Apache Server. I need to implement (in my Perl scrips) user authentication/session control for Apache. Basically, what I need is: once validated the user login in the Database (Oracle) by a Perl script, I need to control the session, that means: if it didn't expire (in a period of time), if it is the same session since user login, if the user is using the same host where the login was done. If the session is invalid a new user login will be required. Note: Dont't need to store session information in Database, just interact with Apache Server to controll the sessions. Is it possible ? Do anybody have done something like this ? (if it's possible, can send me the scripts or some example ?) Or just have an idea of whow it must be done ? I'm afraid I'm not clear enough !!! Pls help me in this regard. By the way, thank's a lot for reading this and for your help Regards,
