Oh yeah, I forgot that I'm still banned.  Time for another random
address. ;)

Here's what I meant to write:

I think you want to write an Authorization handler in mod_perl:

  http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/http.html#PerlAuthzHandler

You write one of these, then put "PerlAuthzHandler Your::Handler" in
your Location or Directory blocks.  I assume.  The docs have all the
details.
