+OVERVIEW
+
+Apache::AuthCookie allows you to intercept a user's first unauthenticated
+access to a protected document. The user will be presented with a custom
+form where they can enter authentication credentials. The credentials are
+posted to the server where AuthCookie verifies them and returns a session
+key.
+
+The session key is returned to the user's browser as a cookie. As a cookie,
+the browser will pass the session key on every subsequent accesses.
+AuthCookie will verify the session key and re-authenticate the user.
+
+All you have to do is write a custom module that inherits from AuthCookie.
+See the POD documentation for more details.
+
+INSTALLATION
+
+This module uses the Apache::Test framework for testing.  As a result, any
+other Apache::Test parameters can be used when generating the Makefile.
+
+    perl Makefile.PL -apxs /usr/sbin/apxs
+    make
+    make test
+    make install
