Thread: mod_auth_pgsql and Apache 2.4
Just wondering if anyone has had a go at updating the mod_auth_pgsql authentication module to the new access/authentication provider framework ?
I have had a quick look and can't seem to decide which standard module I should try to base the modifications on.
I appreciate that this is really an httpd query rather than a postgreSQL one but there is a bit of overlap :-)

Back in Dec 2012, I asked whether anyone had already updated mod_auth_pgsql to work with the new authentication framework in Apache 2.3+ I didn't get any replies so went ahead and made sufficient changes to get it working in our environment.
I approached the maintainer/author about adding my patches (which I supplied) and releasing a new version which he said he would do but to date hasn't done so, so I have decided to make what I did available to anyone who wants it.
I don't claim it is complete but it works fine with httpd 2.4 in the manner we use it so may work as is for others as well.
