Thanks, that worked. Now I can use the regular authentication stuff. As I said in my last email, in the interest of preventing location pollution, is there some way I could make those PerlSetVars available to subsequent requests to a different location? I can't think of any way to do it without copying them to a separate location for each one. Perhaps with some kind of shared memory?
