Hello all,
I currently have Apache 2.2 sitting in front of my Ruby on Rails application, proxying non-static requests to the Rails server running on a different port. I have an admin portion of my Rails application that is accessed by going to www.mysite.com/admin/. I want to protect the admin portion using mod_auth in Apache, and I was wondering if that would be possible since I'm proxying that type of stuff to my Rails server. Can I implement a Rewrite rule to look for attempts to access the admin/ portion of the application and force authorization? If so, can someone provide me with an example? If not, is it possible to do this another way? Below is the relevant portion of my config file that I use to proxy the requests.
<Proxy *>
Allow from All
</Proxy>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/$ /index.html [QSA]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule .* http://127.0.0.1:3001%{REQUEST_URI} [L,P,QSA]
Thanks in advance!!! -- BTR
