Hi, I am new to mod_perl, and this has puzzled me for quite some time. I will appreciate any thoughts/ideas/input on how to do this.
I used mod_perl to write a customized module of perlAuthnHandler. my handler is trying to access some third party database for authentication, get back the username and password, and keep them with the apache server so that later I could retrieve the username and password using HttpServletRequest in my java code. I've tried $r->set_basic_credentials($username, $passwd); to send the username and password back, but it didn't work. Also when I return , should I use POST or GET method? Thanks a lot! Yuan
