First, what's your definition of 'auth dbi'?
Second, why do you think you need to have 'auth dbi'?
Third, start with your favorite Internet search engine and
when you have questions about your code, come on back.

Possibly, if you want to use a database of username/passwords
to manage access to your CGIs, then using something like
CGI::Session::Auth::DBI, might help.

In that case, use CPAN and consult the documentation:

There's also Apache::AuthDBI:

http://search.cpan.org/~pgollucci/Apache-DBI-1.06/lib/Apache/AuthDBI.pm

But, as you implied, there's no point in anybody guessing what the OP
is trying to do; hopefully these pointers will help him figure that out.
