Authentication with Apache-LDAP-Modul

[Matt Cowger]

I'm using LDAP auth, and its working fine.  Are you sure that the 
webserver is doing the basic auth? Do you get a passwd prompt from your 
browser?  One thing to make sure of though:

Make sure that both your CGI-BIN dir and the nagios HTML dir are 
protected, or you wont get anything.  Mine looks like the following:


######## STUFF FOR NAGIOS ############################

Alias /nagios "/usr/local/nagios/share/"
<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/share/">
     AllowOverride None
     Options None
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
     AuthName "Go AWAY!"
     AuthType Basic
     LDAP_Protocol_Version 3
     LDAP_Server my.ldap.server
     LDAP_Port 389
     Base_DN "o=my.base.dn"
     UID_Attr uid
     require user user1
</Directory>

######## STUFF FOR NAGIOS ############################

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/"
<Directory "/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/">
     AllowOverride None
     Options None
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
     AuthName "Go AWAY!"
     AuthType Basic
     LDAP_Protocol_Version 3
     LDAP_Server my.ldap.server
     LDAP_Port 389
     Base_DN "o=my.base.dn"
     UID_Attr uid
     require user user1
</Directory>


--------------------------------------------------

And in cgi.cfg I have

use_authentication=1
default_user_name=guest
authorized_for_<everthing>=user1
