[htmltmpl] Perl CGI authentication and session management

[David C. <dpc...@ho...>]

hello, world!

I'm working on an e-commerce site using Apache 1.3.26, Perl 5.6,
CGI::Application, HTML::Template, and CGI::FormBuilder.  I need to
provide secure user login/logout, profiles, financial pages, etc..  For
starters, I plan to use https for sensitive pages.  After that, I'm not
sure which way to go.  I would prefer using a standard CPAN module, such
as CGI::Session and/or CGI::Session::Auth.


What experiences, recommendations, comments, criticisms, and/or
suggestions do the list readers have in the areas of user authentication
and session management using Perl and CGI?  Does anyone have URL's for
some good articles, tutorials, etc.?


TIA,

David
