+ Apache::lonacc - Cookie Based Access Handler
+ =head1 SYNOPSIS
+ Invoked (for various locations) by /etc/httpd/conf/srm.conf:
+  PerlAccessHandler       Apache::lonacc
+ =head1 INTRODUCTION
+ This module enables cookie based authentication and is used
+ to control access for many different LON-CAPA URIs.
+ Whenever the client sends the cookie back to the server,
+ this cookie is handled by either lonacc.pm or loncacc.pm
+ (see srm.conf for what is invoked when).  If
+ the cookie is missing or invalid, the user is re-challenged
+ for login information.
+ This is part of the LearningOnline Network with CAPA project
+ described at http://www.lon-capa.org.
+ =head1 HANDLER SUBROUTINE
+ This routine is called by Apache and mod_perl.
