Part 4: Wrapping up the foundations

Just to wrap up, and in case you are lazy like me, give you a whole file worth of subroutines. It's my toolbox and I'm giving it to you. I put this in a secure location and just call it from my other scripts. This makes the code much shorter in my other scripts, nearly auto-commenting, and avoids bugs because if it works in one, it will work in others.

NOTE: This uses the foundations in parts 1, 2 and 3. You can find them here: Part 1 Part 2 Part3

Part 3: The SubRoutines

Now for the tools. There's a lot here, but in further articles you will see how this can be useful. I'll go through each tool with what it does, how to call it, and then the code itself.

Part 2: Some Standard declarations and personalizing for your site

More foundational work. This stuff will configure for your site, and the routines that follow will regularly rely on them.

First, let's declare our modules:

#!/user/bin/perl
use strict;
use Net::LDAP;
use Authen::SASL;
use IO::Socket::SSL;
use Digest::SHA qw/sha1_base64/;
use Mail::Sendmail;
use Crypt::SmbHash;
use CGI;
use CGI qw/:standard/;

Part 1: Foundations

In our journey of code, it is always useful to have a foundation. For starters you will need to make sure that you have the following PERL packages installed, as we will be using them regularly.

Net::LDAP
Authen::SASL
IO::Socket::SSL
Digest::SHA
Mail::Sendmail
Crypt::SmbHash
CGI
