Log:
Lost my commit msg the first time around, so...

This CGI script might be useful for providing an easy way for EZproxy to authenticate users against an Evergreen instance.

For example, if you modify your eg_vhost.conf by adding this:
<Directory "/openils/var/cgi-bin/ezproxy">
    AddHandler cgi-script .pl
    AllowOverride None
    Options +ExecCGI
    allow from all
</Directory>

and make that directory and copy remoteauth.cgi to it:
mkdir /openils/var/cgi-bin/ezproxy/
cp remoteauth.cgi /openils/var/cgi-bin/ezproxy/

Then you could add a line like this to the users.txt of your EZproxy instance:

::external=https://hostname/cgi-bin/ezproxy/remoteauth.cgi,post=user=^u&passwd=^p
