Slauth Description

Slauth is a Perl-based authentication and authorization module for Apache HTTPD 2. Slauth is a Perl-based authentication and authorization module for Apache HTTPD 2. Slauth project has a plugin architecture. The main plugin initially available allows subscribers of specific Mailman mail lists to self-register for authenticated web site access. This code has been in operation since Spring 2004. But documentation is currently needed.HISTORYSlauth was originally developed for use by Stratofox, an amateur aerospace tracking and recovery team. (Sometimes this has also been called "nearspacecraft hunting".)The ability to have users self-register based on Mailman mail list subscriptions resulted mostly from discussions with two rocket-building groups that Stratofox works with. The rocket-builders parted paths and didn't want each other's private information available to the other. At the time both were nearly ready to attmept the first non-government space launch. After some discussion, this capability was developed by Stratofox during the search for an acceptable method to continue towork with both groups and continue to participate in their launches.INSTALLATIONNote: instead of using ExtUtils::MakeMaker, the installation process is based on Module::Build (which is intended to supersede it.) The process is similar, using Build.PL instead of Makefile.PL and our own generated Build script (made by Build.PL) instead of your system's make command.To install this module type the following: perl Build.PL Build Build test Build install Requirements: · mod_perl for Apache 2.0 · CGI · CGI::Carp · CGI::Cookie · Digest::MD5 · IO::File
