NAME

Apache::AuthzDigest - pick up the authorization pieces of mod_digest

SYNOPSIS

PerlModule Apache::AuthDigest
PerlModule Apache::AuthzDigest

<Location /protected>
  PerlAuthenHandler Apache::AuthDigest
  PerlAuthzHandler Apache::AuthzDigest
  Require user foo
  AuthType Digest
  AuthName "cookbook"
  AuthDigestFile .htdigest
</Location>

DESCRIPTION

Apache::AuthzDigest picks up the authorization pieces of mod_digest that Apache::AuthDigest leaves behind, namely the checking behind the "Require user" directive.

see the Apache::AuthDigest manpage for more information on Apache::AuthDigest, which is the real driver here - Apache::AuthzDigest doesn't do much, really.

EXAMPLE

see the SYNOPSIS.

NOTES

Apache::AuthzDigest will decline to process the transaction if mod_digest.c is detected, allowing the faster mod_digest implementation to control the fate of the request.

FEATURES/BUGS

none that I know of yet, but consider this alphaware.
