Hi, I just started with CGI::Application. I have an example where login against a mysql-DB works. I want to change that in that way, that for authentication a htpasswd file is uses. 
  $self->authen->config(
    DRIVER => [ 'DBI',
      DBH         => $self->dbh,
      TABLE       => 'user_info',
      CONSTRAINTS => {
        'user_info.username'     => '__CREDENTIAL_1__',
        'MD5:user_info.password' => '__CREDENTIAL_2__'
      },
    ],

    STORE                => 'Session',
    LOGOUT_RUNMODE       => 'logout',
    LOGIN_RUNMODE        => 'login',
    POST_LOGIN_RUNMODE   => 'okay',
    RENDER_LOGIN         => \&my_login_form,
  );

Authentication::Driver::HTPasswd says: 
DRIVER => ['HTPasswd', '/etc/apache/htpasswd', '/etc/apache/otherhtpas
+swd']

but if I change the DRIVER to: 
    DRIVER => [
       'HTPasswd',
       '/srv/www/my/.htpasswd'
       ],

it seems obvious to me that it will not work. Where can I say that e.g. md5 is used in the htpasswd file, what the user name is used and so on. Is there any example? I think I missed an essential part. Txs, chris

In reply to CGI::Application::Plugin::Authentication, switch from DBI to htpasswd by chris-
