Hi,

I want to use some client certificates to act with my application user db.

What I think is like this:

--- perl_set $pass MyAuthCheck;

location / { if ($pass) { . fastcgi_pass ... . } return 403; }

--- MyAuthCheck(pseudo code):

--- . . if( select user from $DB where USER = mysql_quote($ssl_client_s_dn) || select user from $DB where USER = mysql_quote($ssl_client_i_dn)){ . . return OK; }else { . . return DECLINED; }

---

Is it possible to get the

http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpSslModule => variables at the bottom of the site into perl?

As far as I have understand the perl-module there is the same problem as in lighty with lua:

http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/wiki/Docs%3AModMagnet#overview

--- Keep in mind that the magnet is executed in the core of lighty. EVERY long-running operation is blocking ALL connections in the server.

---

Is this assumption right?

Thanks for help ;-)
