I am trying to find a way using sharepoint to write a cookie that can be read by perl scripts. I need to be able to pass the user credentials of a user signed into Shrepoint to some perl scripts. Any help would be greatly apprecaited. Thank youThomas Chovanec

SharePoint doesn't write authentication cookies, ASP.NET does. If you've got the perl scripts running inside a SharePoint managed url, you might be able to use the sharepoint web service to get user credentials. Try usergroup.asmx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms772575(v=office.12).aspx I'm not sure what you'll get out of the cookie -- just a sessionid?
