Since you're talking about Apache, I'll assume you're trying to protect brute-force HTTP Authentication style logins. That's something I'm quite sure you will have a hard time doing within a traditional CGI environment. Have you ever worked with mod perl? There are some good starter docs at modperl.com, and one seems specifically tailored to your needs: Blocking Greedy Clients. I'm sure this could easily be modified to suit your purpose. --twerq
