actually, most likely you are looking not just password checking but also session management.
The easiest way is to take advantage of mod_auth which come with apache by default (consult this part of the apache faq for more detail http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/FAQ.html#user-authentication) or if you plan to build something of your own... try mod_perl and make use of handler, consult "the Eagle book" (writing apache modules with perl and c from o'reilly) for more detail and example.
