Hi,

What would be the point of doing this in pound rather than on the back-end http server? Also it would conflict with cases where the back-end does authentication itself, and of course there would be the problem of communicating auth info to the back_end (when you do it on Apache for instance you get the username in REMOTE_USER).

It might be more appropriate to do Proxy-authentication (i.e. 407 instead of 401), but wouldn't that be more useful in a "forward" proxy configuration rather than in a reverse proxy/load balancer configuration?

Jacques.
