CGI client auth by digital certificateby traveler (Parson) |

traveler has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I've tried searching this site and others with no luck. What I want to do is have a CGI program authenticate a user by verifying a digital certificate. I'm using Apache under Linux. I know how to authenticate the user to access a page, but I want the perl CGI script to verify the user, too. Actually, the script just needs to verify that the cert is valid and came from our CA. Is there a way to do this?
