Uh, I thought I went back to the original version.
Hm. <checks> No, I guess I messed that part up.
Okay, I'm back at the distro version, but now I've got
other problems. I get "Can't use an undefined value
as a HASH reference" (line 234, trying to add auth_type
and auth_name to the COOKIES notes). Something in mah's
patch fixed that problem, apparently ('cause I'd been
having it earlier). [I just checked -- it looks like
Mark fixed that with an "if defined" check for
$r->pnotes('COOKIES').]

Well, first, I'd like it to not crash. :) <ducks!>
Um, one problem I've had is with URL vs Cookie
sessions -- the method to do Cookie-only sessions is
both couterintuitive and, apparently, broken. If I drop
the "PerlModule" call of A::A::P::Session, then it
crashes 'cause it can't find authenticate() (for the
PerlAuthenHandler line). If I put it back in, then
I get the aforementioned HASH error. With the patch,
I get no error, but can't turn off URL sessions. A
simple "PerlSetVar UseCookies Yes" and "UseURLs No"
would be great.
I'm finding something weird (maybe) with Authentication,
in that I've got "no guest" set for the base folder,
and "group admin" for a subordinate folder, but it
*seems* that the base folder is all that's checked,
so the admin group restriction isn't being enforced.
For that matter, it'd be nice to have auth: tags that
returned stuff in a perl-centric (not xml-nodeset)
way -- so I could iterate, for example, over a list
of groups. (or is there a way to do this that I
haven't yet learned? I'm thinking of something like
'foreach $g (<auth:get-access type="group"/>) { ...')
And...um....er...I'm pretty sure I'd had some other questions
or thoughts, but I can't remember them right now.
Once I start playing with user-settable session variables
(like selecting a default display style) I'm sure I'll
be back with more questions, either for Sessions or for
AxKit in general (like how do I select a different stylesheet
based on a cookie value? I know there's some kind of AxKit
config. for that, I just have to figure out how to do it. :) )
Thanks for any help you can give me!
david.
