As you've read, currently Apache::Session is not shipped with mod_perl and
have to be installed separately.
Apache::Session is a persistence framework for session data. He not handles
web sessions for you. For a transparent management you can:
1. Use an existent application server mod_perl-based that offers this
capability like Apache::ASP, Ax-Kit, HTML::Mason or HTML::Embperl, etc...
2. If you prefer to write your own mod_perl modules, you can use
Apache::SessionManager,
a mod_perl module that helps session management of a web application by
creating session object and making it available to all other handlers
transparenlty (you can found it on CPAN). It is a wrapper around
Apache::Session.
