Hi again, maybe I wrote something that was clear only for me...

This is what I need (not considering mod_survey syntax):

To authenticate users WITHOUT the apache window that requests username and
password;
I know that i can append strings for authentication as GET parameters, I can
do it with PHP but how I can do it with perl/mod_survey? I MUST have a
database, or a simple CSV file is enough? I can't find an answer in the
syntax reference; 
And, if I MUST have a database, how can I do it? (is there any example in
the documentation)?

Thanks a lot!
Luca

Oggetto: Re: survey-discussion-list: Usage ok TOKENAUTH method

Tokenauth isn't for htpasswd files. If you want basic auth with username and
password, use FILEAUTH. TOKENAUTH is only for when you identify yourself
with *one* string, ie a token. The format of the user file in TOKENAUTH is
one token string per line.

Replace the TOKENAUTH tag with FILEAUTH:

..
<FILEAUTH USERFILE="[some htpasswdmade file] /> ..
