Hi, I'm running Apache/1.3.20 (Win32) mod_perl/1.25_01-dev and am having problem using auth_name to dynamically set the realm. The call seems to be ignored, using the AuthName directive from http.conf.
Excuse me if I've done something obviously wrong, but I've only been writing mod_perl for 4 days. Looking around I saw a note from someone which implied they also had a problem with this on NT (I'm running XP Professional) but that was some time ago. After looking through http://perl.apache.org/dist/mod_perl-1.26/Changes it seems that the problem I am having may well be fixed in 1.26 Being a simple windows programmer, I'd appreciate it if someone could point me to a win32 binary distribution of mod_perl for 1.26 My httpd.conf look like this <Location /private > SetHandler perl-script PerlSendHeader on AuthName temp AuthType Basic require valid-user PerlAccessHandler Apache::AccessPrivate </Location> and the access handler part of my AccessPrivate.pm file is here... sub handler { my $r = shift; my $uri = $r->parsed_uri; my @pi = split /\//,$uri->path_info(); shift @pi; my $realm = shift @pi; $r->auth_name("$realm"); $r->set_handlers(PerlAuthenHandler => [\&authenticate]); $r->set_handlers(PerlHandler => [\&content]); return OK; } regards john
