Something like the following?
package My::CookieAuth;
use strict;
use Apache::Constants qw(:common);
use CGI qw(:standard);
use CGI::Cookie ();
sub handler {
my $r = shift;
return DECLINED unless cookie(COOKIE_NAME);
return OK;
}
__END__
In httpd.conf, you will need to set this as the PerlAuthenHandler
for the protected files/directories and `require any' to get Apache
to actually call it. This is not the most efficient, but it could
be a starting point for what you're looking for, if I understand
what you're looking for.
