Usually an authentication handler will send the user_agent a redirect header (for security) and start a new session on success, this handler could save parts of the POST payload against that session (remember to filter this data) so that when the user_agent makes the GET request to the new URL the session_id is transmitted and your application can access the session data, any make changes to the response: "hi filtered(_user_), haven't seen you since filtered(_db_lookup_)". 
In other words your handler should lookup the supplied POST credentials in db saving the data retrieved from the db (perhaps last login, email address ...) to a new session, and only then send the redirect (302)

Hi,

We have Apache Auth handler writting in mod_perl, after success full
authentication (after the execution of auth handler).

The request parameter came as POST data is lost, but if I send the same
parameters with GET those are available.

What is the reason for this, and how to preserve the post data came in and
use in subequent processes after the execution of auth hanlder.

Waiting for a early reploy
Thanks
