So you only want to ensure that the basic authentication
was attempted, but don't want to check the credentials on
the nginx side? Here's how:
http {
map $remote_user $realm {
'' mydomainhere.com;
default off;
}
server {
auth_basic $realm;
auth_basic_user_file /dev/null;
}
}
It means that HTTTP basic authentication by nginx will be
disabled ("off") if $remote_user is not empty, and enabled
(and return 401 with an appropriate header) otherwise.
