Well, after searching the archive more I found some usage questions; hence I will post my own :)
We are trying to shut down web access to all our networked printers on campus "the easy way": set up a proxy server through which only selected people can access the printers. The authentication can be done using LDAP. A couple of methods have been suggested, and I am researching them now: (1) mod_ssl + mod_auth_ldap + mod_proxy (2) mod_ssl + mod_authz_ldap + mod_proxy (3) mod_ssl + A nice little PHP login page that queries LDAP before turning things over to mod_proxy. So far I have had success with setting up a virtual host as a forward proxy and with activating SSL for LDAP queries through a login page, but I'm really confused about something: how could I set things up so users visit some login page, their credentials are checked through LDAP, and then they are forwarded to the printer they want? Does anyone have any suggestions, or has anyone tried this and gotten anywhere? Thanks for your time.

Does anyone know of a list that might be appropriate? Thank you, Andrew Andrew Musselman [EMAIL PROTECTED]
