mod_perl authentication and messagesby BigLug (Chaplain) |

BigLug has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I'm using mod_perl to do basic authentication on apache. I tried using mod_auth_mysql but the newer version won't compile against an older apache, and the older version didn't allow anything but usernames and passwords. I need to check other flags. As I need to check other flags, I'd like to give the users messages in the AuthName. Is it possible to change the AuthName at runtime? Or can it only be set in the config? My AuthName begins as "Enter your serial number and password", but if they enter those correctly but have not paid, I'd like to change it to something along the lines of "Your serial number and password are correct. Please pay in order to enter the support area." Update: I should point out that the authentication is all working without any problems. I'm just looking for a way to change the AuthName.
Cheers! Rick If this is a root node: Before responding, please ensure your clue bit is set. If this is a reply: This is a discussion group, not a helpdesk ... If the discussion happens to answer a question you've asked, that's incidental.
