$Id: README,v 1.6 2006/03/02 20:50:36 reggers Exp $ Updated for Apache2 2-Mar-2006 by Reg Quinton ---------------------- This module, Apache::AuthenDBMCache, is an Apache/mod_perl authentication handler to accelerate logins that use other perl methods (like AuthenURL, AuthenSMB, or etc.). It requires Apache support for the stacking of modules (which has been there for quite some time). To build and install it, please run perl Makefile.PL make make test make install To read more about this module try pod2text AuthenDBMCache.pm In many ways this is just another implementation of AuthenCache but instead of using shared memory I use a DBM file to cache data. We were using the shared memory method but ran into problems when the cache filled. There are other issues. BEWARE: If you want to use this module the system manager will have to have set up the cache file and a cron job to prune the cache. See the POD.
