DESCRIPTION

Apache2::AuthColloquy is an Apache 2 authentication module. It will authenticate against a Colloquy users.lua user database file using the newer password2 field.

This script munges the users.lua file in to executable perl code which is then evaluated. It should therefore be used with caution if you cannot gaurentee the integrity of the users.lua file. See Colloquy::Data for more details.
