You can implement your own httpd.conf directives with some effort:

http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/config.html#Adding_Custom_Configuration_Directives
 and
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/custom.html

But, for simple needs, you should also consider using PerlSetVar

http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html#C_PerlSetVar_

add httpd.conf directive

[pennyyh]

Hello,

I'm running mp1 with PerlAccessHandler handler.
I want to add some config directive into httpd.conf,and let my module 
use them for passing auth.

ie,in httpd.conf I add these lines,

PassAuthIPs12.34.56.78  23.45.67.89

Then the requests from these IPs would get past.
How can I do it?thanks.

Isn't that easier to do with the following standard Apache directives 
(independently of mod_perl) ?

location  /xyz
  Deny from all
  Allow from (list of IP's)
/location

If the above is not applicable, then you could use something like
location /xyz
  PerlSetVar AllowedIps ip1 ip2 ip3
  ...
/location

and in your module do

sub handler {
  my $r = shift; # the request object
  my $AllowedIps = $r-dir_config('AllowedIps') || ''; # get ip1 ip2 ip3
  ...
}
and I guess there must be a function in mod_perl to get the IP from 
which the request is coming, to compare.


Hope this helps.

Also you can add them in httpd.conf,

PerlAddVar PassAuthIPs 11.11.11.11
PerlAddVar PassAuthIPs 22.22.22.22
PerlAddVar PassAuthIPs 33.33.33.33

and in modperl handler,

@pass_ips = $r-dir_config-get('PassAuthIPs');

this would get the IPs you set with PassAuthIPs in httpd.conf.
