The unsupported plugin can be found at:

http://www.zope.org/Download/Prereleases/NetscapePlugin/nscgi-auth-src-1
.0.tar.gz

This plugin was written for Netscape Server 2.0.  There are no plans for
us to update it, however we would like someone to do the task and get it
up to spec.  It should be a trivial conversion, however we cannot commit
the resources (buy Netscape server, learn the NSAPI changes) to do it
ourselves.
