[MacPerl] Perl script for .htaccess/.htpasswrd

["Eric B. White" <hohoho@cldc.howard.edu>]

I'm working on a project using a NCSA server. I need to write  a perl
script for web users of this network to enter data into
some forms that will be password/userid protected so that there activities
will be tracked or the computer will know that they enter their vital info
to succeed to accessand enter info. The goal is to allow users to only
enter there userid/passwrd once while in this directory of forms.

If someone could assist me on this it would be deeply appreciated. 

i believe i will have to designate a directory for these forms so that
once the user enters this particular directory and logs on that the
.htaccess and .htpasswrd file will allow them to put their userid and
passwrd once w/out repeating that process over and over again.

thank you!
