Hi All,
I have to store the authentication details like the user_id & password
in a file .
I do not want to include hard code in my file so basically what i am
trying is i wanted to authenticate the user who logged in by reading a
file which contains the user_id & pwd & then if valid , let him call
the subroutines defined else provide him with error message..
I am using postgres db & apache2.. , my search has landed me to
mod_auth_pgsql.

No, mod_auth_pgsql does authentication from within Apache, but you seem
to need to do authentication from within your program and independently
of Apache.
I'd suggest that you create a database table that contains usernames and
passwords for your users. Then you should use standard postgres database
access (DBI) to fetch that data.
