Hello everybody,

I am pleased to announce a module for Apache written in perl. It's called AuthSympa and it's an Apache 2 mod_perl module. The goal is to control acces to some ressources using subscribers definition for a particular list hosted by some Sympa server. This contribution will be included in Sympa's project in a very future release but it can be used now under GPL licence.

Apache::AuthSympa run a a client side of a Sympa's soap server for :

1. ask remote sympa server to validate email+password
2. ask remote sympa server toknown if this email is registred as a
list subscriber of a particular list;

The two parts of the module named Apache::AuthNSympa and Apache::AuthZSympa can be used separately for authentication and/or authorization

Here is a sample configuration :

<Directory "/var/www/somwehere">
AuthName SympaAuth
AuthType Basic
PerlSetVar SympaSoapServer http://mysympa.server/soap # URL of the sympa soap server which provides the lists
PerlSetVar SympaList mylist #list used for authorization
PerlAuthenHandler Apache::AuthenSympa # authentication module
PerlAuthzHandler Apache::AuthzSympa #authorization module
require valid-user
</Directory>


You can find a description at this url http://www.sympa.org/apacheauthsympa.html

If you have any comment, don't hesitate. Test it!
