Hi!
Thanks for your answer but I have additional question:
1. I have two possibilities to get XXX value:
- from database via SQL query
- from Radius system via LDAP guery
As far as mod_perl is concerned what method would be the best? (more
flexible, faster and easier to integrate)
2. A lot of technologies introduces database connection pool. What is the
recommended solution for mod_perl (every request in my case required
executing query to database) and what solution is recommended for script which uses
Apache::Filter::HTTPHeadersFixup?
3. Is LWP required for solve my problem?
Best regards
Remek
