Hello, I'm trying to setup a domain based authentication. The
situation is, that there is already a cookie-based authentication.
Additionally we want to enable a direct login for some specific
domains. Is this at all possible? I added a Domain Auth Plugin and
activated it as the authentication plugin. Then I changed the
order for this interface, so that "Domain Auth" is on top. But a
request from such a domain get's an unauthorized and is redirected
to the normal login page.
Is there something more needed? I tried with the exact IP and with
an endswith match for the domain name.
What do I miss?
(It's been a long time since the DomainAuthHelper was created,
forgive me if I'm slow)
Are you using mod_rewrite by any chance? You may need to turn on X-
Forwarded-For (I forget the exact header), since in the default
case, REMOTE_HOST is usually the Apache instance in such a setup.
Woops. Like I said, too long since I played in it. It runs
request.getClientAddr(), which does take HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR, but
only if the default REMOTE_ADDR is in an attribute called
`trusted_proxies`. From lib/python/ZPublisher/HTTPRequest.py (in some
2.7 branch):
# The trusted_proxies configuration setting contains a sequence
# of front-end proxies that are trusted to supply an accurate
# X_FORWARDED_FOR header. If REMOTE_ADDR is one of the values in
this list
# and it has set an X_FORWARDED_FOR header, ZPublisher copies
REMOTE_ADDR
# into X_FORWARDED_BY, and the last element of the X_FORWARDED_FOR
list
# into REMOTE_ADDR. X_FORWARDED_FOR is left unchanged.
# The ZConfig machinery may sets this attribute on initialization
# if any trusted-proxies are defined in the configuration file.
trusted_proxies = []
(again, this is all if you're using mod_rewrite and VirtualHostMonster)
