The named function _is_ the plugin structure. Just provide a C function that does what you want. I think Dave wants to be able to specify a tcl proc via a tcl command, or maybe a different c proc via a tcl command. But the point is, this is a single point of entry for replacing the authentication for a request. You don't need a filter, although there is already support for providing these in tcl right now. So the question is: couldn't you get the same effect by ensuring the new auth code ran as the first 'post-auth' filter? tom jackson -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with the body of "SIGNOFF AOLSERVER" in the email message.
