This is not directly a zope-question,
but maybe someone has figured out how to solve
this.
I'm using apache with mod_rewrite to redirect
requests for a certain directory from apache to zope
(with option [p]).
Now for the first time I can't get apache to do want
I want it to, that is logging the usernames into
apaches logfile.
Apache does this only when enabling apache's mod_auth
via
<Directory Proxy:*>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Ihr Login..."
AuthUserFile "/httproot/web/bogus_userfile.txt"
require valid-user
</Directory>
or similar, but the silly thing then also wants his own
authentication.
I am not able to get it to extract the username without
really requiring apache authentication.
Does anybody know how I could accomplish that?
Any dirty tricks to get apache to *think* it authentifies,
but letting through every username/password combination,
so that zope can do it's job?
And no, putting any of this combinations in bogus_userfile.txt
is not an option ;->.
Another possibility (which gets me more on-topic) is to
do that in medusas http_server (which logs a '-' hardcoded),
but the only way I could imagine (and code myself) would
be to do the base64-decoding there and that seems not quite
elegant, even more because apache's log-files hold the
client-ip in this situation and therefore are more
informative anyway.
cheers,
oliver
