Apache::SessionManager - an Apache mod_perl module to manage HTTP sessions. Apache::SessionManager is a mod_perl module that helps session management of a web application. This simple module is a wrapper around Apache::Session persistence framework for session data. It creates a session object and makes it available to all other handlers transparenlty by putting it in pnotes. You can download it from CPAN: http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-authors/id/E/EN/ENRYS/Apache-SessionManager-0.02.tar.gz See perldoc Apache::SessionManager for more details. The current version is 0.02 but I will put 0.03 today to CPAN (there's support to all cookies attributes customization and a support to mod_backhand cookie-based load balancing). - Enrico
