That pages works for me, but if you're using php, just recompile php with oracle library support (assuming you've installed the libraries from oracle's website) and you can access the db from your scripts. -Tony Sent from my Windows Mobile® phone. -----Original Message----- From: Vasanth Kumar ravi <josvasanth@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, February 18, 2009 6:38 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Authentication/Authorization using HTTP Server Well i did try to access the link http://oskin.ru/mod_auth_oracle.html, but the page did not come up. I did find that there are modules for mysql & postgresql, but the application is running using oracle 10g. Authentication would be implemented in httpd by using custom made php script/pages. we need to eliminate the weblogic from authen/authoriz and have them in httpd & db. hope this helps..
