If you are not looking for a high security solution you could do
something like this:
AuthType CAS
AuthName "CAS"
require valid-user
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Satisfy any
The "Satify any" is a logical OR for apache authentication. This setup
above would allow anyone from the IP or anyone with a valid cas login.
Just change the IP to your batch source and you are done. Not high
security but it's perfect in a controlled env. with low security
requirements.
For high security requirements you can look into a combined mod_auth_cas
solution with client certificates. Just create another alias to your
secured directory that you protect with SSL client certificates. You
then have different slightly different urls but also with different
authentication setting.

I am planning on securing some static files with mod_auth_cas but I have a
batch process that also needs access to these files. These file are kinda
sensitive but not super secret. We just don't want someone bookmarking these
files and then forever having access to them. I was thinking that I could give
the batch process a different url to pull its files from and not have
mod_auth_cas secure that url. Is this the way I should do this or is there
something I am missing. I cannot change the batch process code as it is a
vendor product.
