Hello all!I'm having trouble with a proxy setup, where I need to generate a REMOTE_USER variable for a cgi-script, but also allow no-authenticated use.
The setup to allow authentication ether by http-auth and remote ip, and then froward the calls to an inner server where the cgi-program checks for the presence of REMOTE_USER in the environment or else uses REMOTE_ADDR (which I extract from HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR in a wrapper script). I cant seem to get this working :-(
the current config is on these lines: first server: <Location /service> AuthType Basic AuthName "Service domain" AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/passwd/servicepasswd order deny,allow deny from all Include /etc/apache2/passwd/servicedomains require valid-user satisfy any </Location> RewriteRule ^/service/?(.*) http://inner-server/service/$1 [P] Inner server (in service/.htaccess): AuthUserFile /www/conf/servicepasswd AuthName "Service domain" AuthType Basic order deny,allowIn this basic setup, nothing works :-) (well I can login and see the application but the application wont get a REMOTE_USER variable), if I add a "require valid-user" on the inner server in works for authenticated user but login via ip-number stops working. After half a day of of searching the documentation and trying various combinations of "Allow from <first server ip>", "satisfy any" etc. I'm stumped.
Anyone go any ideas how to do this?
