Both solutions will work. The advantage of Apache::AuthCookie is that steps
in at the Apache Authorisation phase, so you can restrict access not only to
Embperl pages, but to all documents, pictures whatever and you can configure
it once and forget about it, because every document in the protected area
will be protected. If you use Embperl session management you have to test if
the user is logged in in every page before you can do the real work. On the
other side useing Embperl session data gives you some more flexibility,
because you have some more control what happens to un authorizied users.
