Hello,

 

With Geoffrey Young's generous help I have successfully implemented authentication using my own handler subroutine defined as PerlAuthenHandler.

 

This works OK in RedHat but not on SGI (IRIX 6.2). Call to the handler fails complaining that it cannot find request object methods, be it "connection" or "get_basic_auth_pw", saying, for example:

 

[Mon Nov  1 12:54:13 2004] [error] Can't locate object method "get_basic_auth_pw" via package "Our::Auth" at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Our/Auth.pm line 16, <DATA> chunk 225.\n

 

These methods should come with the installation of mod_perl, shouldn't they? A bare installation of Apache 1.3.31+mod_perl 1.29 on a RedHat works OK without demanding any addition Perl modules to be installed.

 

Maybe the ancient Perl version (5.005) is to blame?

 

Thank you for any idea.
