That is not entirely true. When a request comes in apache does an
"early location walk" verifying <location> blocks before the URI to
Filename phase (where rewriting takes place)
So it should be possible if you use a <location> block.
<Location /isp/stats>
# Put DBM authentication arguments here
....
</Location>
RewriteRule /isp/stats /%{ENV:AUTHENTICATE_URL}
That is just a guess however, can't try this out myself. Note to the
original poster: If you get this working could you post your solution
here?
