It was easy to miss in the email if you skimmed it, but he is looking for a C based module, so any perl based solutions are out. The reason this question is mod_perl related is that he is doing the initial authentication using mod_perl, and is creating a cookie based ticket. But he wants that ticket to also be accepted by a non-mod_perl enabled server (ie a front end proxy).
