Try my Apache::AccessCookie too. It provides the same ticketing interface for many different authenticating methods such as LDAP, IMAP, ftp, SMB, and (of course) DBI, plus a number of useful features. One can simply implement her own mechanism too. It can be downloaded at http://mod_perl.home.att.net.
BTW, I tried to register the module in CPAN, but was kind of lost in the middle.
