The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: Config::Secure DSLIP: ampfp description: Module to read protected conf data from PSC userid: SUAVEANT (Anthony Ball) chapterid: 12 (Opt_Arg_Param_Proc) communities: http://www.perlmonks.org similar: rationale: Config::Secure goes hand in hand with another project of my PSC (Perl Secure Conf) http://psc.sourceforge.net. PSC is a setuid C program which serves as a wrapper to perl scripts. It opens a protected file and then drops priviledge, execing your perl script and leaving the protected file handle available to the script. Config::Secure reads and parses from this filehandle, and sets $0 to be the path of the wrapper. I don't know of any other modules that do anything similar, though I may be mistaken. enteredby: SUAVEANT (Anthony Ball) enteredon: Thu Sep 6 00:46:06 2001 GMT The resulting entry would be: Config:: ::Secure ampfp Module to read protected conf data from PSC SUAVEANT Thanks for registering, The Pause Team PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=7e000000_bbc16de9f13460d2&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=7e000000_bbc16de9f13460d2&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1
