Hello,

I sent this email out yesterday, but it didn't seem to reach the list. My 
apologies if you get this twice.

Is there a "best way" to accomplish the following user registration/login 
system:

- User attempts to visit a password-protected section of the site.
- If user is not yet authenticated (using DBI/DBD::Pg), user is redirected 
to a login/registration page.  (We are NOT using Basic authentication).
- User logs in or registers.
- User is given a session key and is taken to the URL they were originally 
trying to visit.
- Session expires after X amount of time.

We're thinking about using "Authen::Ticket" or "Apache::AuthCookie", but 
wanted to get some real-world validation of our approach, or find out about 
other modules that have been used to successfully implement the above.

Thanks!!!

Arnel
