Well, I use very basic authentication for apache (2.2.x), just htpasswd
files and allow,deny hosts lines. So these are the only auth/authz/authn lines I
have enabled. I imagine you could get by on these (or less) as long as Django uses
its own libs or third party libs for its database auth. access.
# Basic auth - general
LoadModule authn_file_module modules/mod_authn_file.so
# Allow,Deny directives
LoadModule authz_host_module modules/mod_authz_host.so
# Basic auth - require valid-user
LoadModule authz_user_module modules/mod_authz_user.so
# Basic auth - AuthType
LoadModule auth_basic_module modules/mod_auth_basic.so

Tony --
Thank you for your time and advice. I've gone ahead and commented out the
modules, and haven't encountered any problems so far.
I'm also wondering how many of the authorization modules are necessary --
considering I have Django doing a lot of that through the DB. But that might be
another thread ... =)
Ben.
