Using PHP as NSAPI Filter

Post by spishack »

I need to do some user authentication using cookies and permissions stuff on an iPlanet platform, and the client prefers me to use NSAPI filters. I know PHP can be compiled as an NSAPI filter, but is it then full capable?

What I mean is, once compiled as an NSAPI filter, can I do ANYTHING using PHP that will then be included on every request?

This is urgent--please help!

From what I've seen, yes, you will be able to call any normal functions that are built into php. Normally external extensions will not be compiled into the DLL, but you can link them in at startup/runtime as usual.

Note: Your urgency doesn't change how quickly we respond. Although some of us may or may not care to respond because of it.
