Hi,

I hope you are using apache.
If so, can easily let apache do the authentication, just set the following in
your access.conf :

<Directory /user/web/apache/cgi-bin/mydir>
   AuthName "RESTRICTED ACCESS"
   AuthType Basic
   require group htuser and others
   AuthUserFile /user/web/apache-1.3.20/Security/myapp/users
   AuthGroupFile /user/web/apache-1.3.20/Security/myapp/groups
</Directory>

You can easily read the username using : $username = ($ENV{'REMOTE_USER'});

Hope this is of any help.
