a few months ago I posted an RFC for a Digest authentication module. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modperl&m=102217847409606&w=2
I've done a bit of work on it based on feedback and my own tinkering, but it's still not completely complete. since then, a few people have asked about it, so I've thought about releasing it just so people can play around with it, experiment, offer patches, and whatnot. here's the module as it exists today: http://www.modperlcookbook.org/~gyoung/modules/experimental/Apache-AuthDigest-0.01.tar.gz if a few people speak up and say they'd like it on CPAN I'll push it over... --Geoff
