this is for mod_perl ;

I'm using normal cgi sessions. It can also be used for a added security to downloaders ; because the path changes as soon as the ip / user / "token" or "ticket" expires.

I'd need such thing as this, but based on a formula of information including an expiration value ; which is now set to 900 currently (15 minutes).

The problem is, since there is no mod_perl:

  1. I have no statefull connection
  2. hereby the system will have to "guess" it by itself and do the appropriate addings/encrypting and powdering afterwards.
  3. it introduces a "five-before-twelve" bug which means; if you are 1 minute before the expiration timeframe of 900 seconds ends,
    • you either have to be fast entering your password and bark like a dog 3 times or
    • have the inconvience of seriously discomforted/discombulated electrons; because "your logintime just ended" ... awwww
