I have the http basic authentication working now.  It just prompts the 
user for u/p if the server responds with a 401.  That works fine.

The only issue with this setup is that once you have cloned the 
repository there is no synchronization of username/passwords with our 
ldap, since when fossil lives on our webserver we aren't really even 
using the fossil password database.  Once the repository is local, 
fossil uses the internal password database.  If the ldap passwords were 
somehow externally synced as you propose... then after a clone the local 
passwords would match the ldap ones.  This would be cool.
