Guess I'm talking to myself on this one. I'll change the subject and try again. Please let me clarify. I need to grab the user's username and password in order to send an http request out to a protected site. The site happens to be the same one the LWP request is being sent from, so I can use the credentials of the user. Trouble is, I'm not sure how to grab the username and password. If in php you can just reference the http_server_vars['php_auth_user'] and http_server_vars['php_auth_passwd']. How is this done with mod_perl?

So, I'd like to get the user credentials in order to authenticate the user. Does PERL have a way to get the credentials from an HTTP_SERVER_VARS hash or from the httpd password file (decrypted password)? Also, is there a way to tell if user is using http or https before making call to LWP? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This message may contain confidential information, and is intended only for the use of the individual(s) to whom it is addressed. ============================================================================== -- Reporting bugs: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This message may contain confidential information, and is intended only for the use of the individual(s) to whom it is addressed. ============================================================================== -- Reporting bugs: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html
