Re: ActivePerl Windows Login and Password question.

Please keep in mind windows 2003 server when you are designing your authentication script else you will have to revisit later on (which isn't so bad unless you move on to another job in the meantime and the next guy/girl ends up stuck with it ;). The authentication for win2k3 is a bit more strict by default (you can enable backwards compatible ntlm authentication) just an fyi/reminder

I want to use Win32::AuthenticateUser which seems to fit the bill perfectly. Unfortunately, I don't see it in CPAN and ppm doesn't have it, and it's not with the base load of activeperl on windows2000 server. But this is the functionality I need: use Win32::AuthenticateUser; AuthenticateUser("domain", "user", "passwd"); But it returns: Can't locate Win32/AuthenticateUser.pm in @INC (@INC contains: I:/Perl/lib I:/Perl/site/lib .)
