Most systems use shadow passwords now, and the call that this module uses to access the password ONLY checks for the password in the /etc/passwd file. Also, the call that is needed to access passwords in /etc/shadow cannot be called by anyone other than root, so, (unless you are crazy enough to run apache as root), you will not be able to access /etc/shadow. For more info on shadow passwords: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Shadow-Password-HOWTO.html For alternatives that can access /etc/shadow from apache: http://mod-auth-shadow.sourceforge.net/ ********************************************* **************** NOTICE ********************* If you are planning to use mod_perl2 and Apache2, please, do not answer yes when prompted to install mod_perl. You will need to download mod_perl2 manually from http://perl.apache.org/download/index.html ********************************************* *** ExtUtils::AutoInstall version 0.63 *** Checking for dependencies...
