learn_forever has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi !

This may be kind of odd one.

I am currently working on application integration, in which the parent application is on NT/IIS/ASP and has it's own user logon session management.

I am developing a child application running on Mod_apache on NT, which would be called by this parent apps. I want to use the same session informtion stored by parent including user-logon.


Since this is going to be a logon related info , I can not get it in the form of encoded URL where the parent calls the child.

Can anybody suggest how I can use the same authentication information and provide a seamless integration without asking user to logon again?

Is there any way I can call IIS session info using something like Apache::ASP and then fetching it in Apache session?

Please help.
Thanks
