Ask Bjorne Hansen and Robert Spier gave a presentation about the single sign-on system used by cpan.org at OSCON. There may be source available. It's not really very hard to build one. The way you build it will vary depending on your requirements. It's definitely easier if you can access some shared resource (like a central database) so that all you need to pass around is a ticket that each domain can use to lookup the user in the shared db. - Perrin -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
