I am using Apache1.3.22/mod_perl1.26 with mod_usertrack.c
from httpd.conf
#User Tracking
LoadModule usertrack_module libexec/mod_usertrack.so
AddModule mod_usertrack.c
CookieTracking on
SetEnvIf Request_URI (\.gif|\.jpeg|\.js|\.css)$ junk
CustomLog /usr/local/sites/dev/logs/clickstream
"%{cookie}n|%H|%m|%f|%U%q|%{User-agent}i|%{%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S}t" env=!junk
Along with a cron job and MySQL to gather the Website Statistics
But on this site, I also have say a Admin Section or a WWW Posting Board
The user doesn't have to log into until they go to that section at which point
I use the following modules to authenticate them against MySQL and give them a
cookie only if they auth correctly (Careful, Apache::Cookie is broken as far as
I can tell with Apache::Session::MySQL hence the CGI)
use Apache;
use Apache::Request ();
use Apache::Constants qw(OK REDIRECT);
use Apache::Session::MySQL;
use CGI qw(:standard);
use DBI;
