Password Protection

Date: 2002/01/15 04:37

Q:
I am lo*NAME-DELETED*ing for way to password protect certain directories and files. I
want the user session to last for a few seconds...(like 3-5 secs.) after
which the user will be prompted to login again if they decide to reload
the page. I will like it to be a perl cgi script but it could be any cgi
script or php. I have the username/passwords in UNIX (username:encrypted
password) format. I don't really need a way to maintain the
usernames/password... just check against it. Any ideas would be
appreciated.
A:
What is the reason to have such a short authentication time frame? Seems
to be useless.

Why do not you use co*NAME-DELETED*ies?

Regards,
Peter
