One major problem in my understanding of the apache configs was using the wrong directive. Well, actually, someone told me to use a directive that wasn't the appropriate directive to use. That is, the AuthUserFile directive. AuthUserFile as you all know, and now I do too, is used as an authentication file of username - password pairs, one per line; not a place to include commands you'd find in an htaccess file. Thus I changed "AuthUserFile" to "Include" and it works. Here is the relevant sections of the config files: /var/www/.htaccess AuthType Basic AuthName "LDAP Required" Require user matt /etc/apache2/conf.d/prox.conf <Location /proxy/> ProxyPass http://localhost:12201/ ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:12201/ Order deny,allow AuthBasicProvider ldap AuthLDAPURL <removed> AuthLDAPBindDN <removed> AuthLDAPBindPassword <removed> AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off Include /var/www/.htaccess </Location> > ProxyRequests Off > <Location /proxy/> > ProxyPass http://localhost:12201/ > ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:12201/ > Order deny,allow > AuthBasicProvider ldap > AuthLDAPURL <removed> > AuthLDAPBindDN <removed> > AuthLDAPBindPassword <removed> > AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off > AuthUserFile /var/www/.htaccess > </Location> -- Matt Zagrabelny - mzagrabe@xxxxxxxxx - (218) 726 8844 University of Minnesota Duluth Information Technology Systems & Services PGP key 1024D/84E22DA2 2005-11-07 Fingerprint: 78F9 18B3 EF58 56F5 FC85 C5CA 53E7 887F 84E2 2DA2 He is not a fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose. -Jim Elliot
