Hi all -

I've been looking into designs for a mod_perl cookie-based "single
sign-on" kind of authentication system that would use a central
authentication server across multiple products.  I've been looking at
things like Apache::TicketAccess, Apache::AuthTicket, Authen::Ticket,
etc., but they all appear to be designed around generating cookies for a
single domain, while in my case I've got products in multiple domains,
e.g.:
   product1.domain.com
   product2.domain.com
   product3.otherdomain.com

I'm figuring I'd need to do some extra redirection and cookie translation
so that I can have (e.g. to get to product3) ticketmaster.domain.com do
the autorization, set a master "I'm authenticated" cookie, redirect to
ticketslave.otherdomain.com, which would have to recognize the master
"domain.com" authentication info and set a "otherdomain.com"
authentication cookie that product3 will recognize...

Does anyone know of existing modules out there that might do what I need,
or have general ideas on how to approach the problem?


Thanks!
Larry Leszczynski
