NAME Apache::AuthenNISPlus - Authenticate into a NIS+ domain SYNOPSIS #httpd.conf AuthName "your nis+ account" AuthType Basic PerlSetVar NISPlus_Passwd_Table passwd.org_dir.yoyodyne.com PerlSetVar NISPlus_Group_Table group.org_dir.yoyodyne.com PerlAuthenHandler Apache::AuthenNISPlus require group eng require user john larry DESCRIPTION Authenticate into a nis+ domain. This is pretty lame in that it simply executes "/usr/bin/nismatch" with the appropriate arguments. If exposed to an unruly user base, that part should be rewritten to gather output from an underprivileged child instead of letting the shell get involved. An even better answer would probably be to hook into Net::NISPlus, but I could not figure out how to do that in the few hours I had available.
