It is probably written somewhere in the docs, anyway to sum up: 1/ Apache is in charge of managing user *authentication*: whether the user exists on the system, and whether its credentials can be validated against a authentication backend (whichever it is: htpasswd, LDAP, SSPI, etc.) 2/ Trac is in charge of managing user *permissions*: whether user 'U' can perforn operation 'O' on Trac. It is not an M-M mapping: Trac defines two special groups (namely "anonymous" and "authenticated" user groups), and allows to define any other group of users to grant permissions for groups in addition to per-user permissions. Trac is not involved in authenticating users at all when you use Apache as the web server.
