Hi,

Isn't the functionality same  whether it is rlm_perl or "Exec-Program-Wait"?

I find the following in ../experimental.conf.

//This is very similar to using
                #  Exec-Program-Wait = "/path/foo.pl", but it is persistent,
                #  and therefore faster. //

With rlm_perl can external perl scripts be easily used as with
Exec-Program-Wait ?
