The mod_fcgid page says to ask on dev I assume that this is the

I'm using mod_fcgid from svn with HTTPD 2.2.
I want to use a fast CGI authorizer to allow me to control access
based on my rules.
The authorizer needs to be a long running process - never exits.
I know that the fcgid code is noticing the directive because I can
change the filename
and see the error message from the sources.
But I'm at a lose as to the required to get this configuration to
actually call my code.
mod_fcgid is not starting up the authorizer process.
I have the following fcgid specific lines in my httpd.conf file:
---- httpd.conf ----
...
LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so
...
Listen *:9000
<VirtualHost *:9000>
<Location />
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
AuthType Digest
Did you really mean Digest authentication instead of Basic authentication?
mod_fcgid only supports Basic, AFAICT.
/* Get the user password */
if ((res = ap_get_basic_auth_pw(r, &password)) != OK)
return res;
I don't want to be an authenticator, I want to be a authorizer.
Authorizer has no need of passwords right.
