Apache authentication
Hello, Does anybody know the current state of getting Review Board to work with Apache authentication? I'm running Review Board 1.0.5.1 with Django 1.1.1 on Apache 2.2. I found this post from a while back: http://groups.google.com/group/reviewboard/browse_thread/thread/59a387bdeac2cbb9/7c8da6b5a8e7817c?lnk=gst&q=apache+authentication#7c8da6b5a8e7817c It makes it sound as though Apache authentication should be supported in Review Board/Django by now, but I can't find mention of it anywhere. I tried setting a "Custom" Authentication Method to "django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware, django.contrib.auth.middleware.RemoteUserMiddleware, django.contrib.auth.backends.RemoteUserBackend" (found here: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/howto/auth-remote-user/). Hitting "Save" seemed to save the settings fine, and when I pull up the login page I'm met with "Log in with your standard username and password (There's no need to register a new account. Your standard username and password should work fine.)". The problem is that I can't actually login-- my Apache username and password do not work. In addition, I can't log in under my existing Review Board admin account (created on install, not related to Apache). Do I also have to somehow create my Apache account in Review Board before switching to the Custom Authentication Method? Any help is appreciated :) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Want to help the Review Board project? Donate today at http://www.reviewboard.org/donate/ Happy user?

Re: Apache Authentication
Hi Andrew, There are some patches up on http://reviews.review-board.org/ for this. They're a little outdated, so you'll probably have to tweak them a bit if you decide to use them. We haven't put them into the main codebase yet because they depend on a feature newly added to the still-in-beta Django 1.1, and we won't be moving to that until after 1.0 is out the door. That's not far off, though.

Apache Authentication
Hi all. Is it possible to use the standard Apache authentication with Review Board? If so, can you point me in the right direction for doing so?
