[opencms-dev] Apache authorized users aren't allowed inside OpenCMS

[Thomas Gagné]

My reverse-proxying Apache has requires valid users before accessing a 
certain OpenCMS directory.

<Location /secret/>
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Secret"
    AuthUserFile etc/passwd
    AuthGroupFile etc/group
    require group customer
</Location>

What's odd is that unless the username authorized by Apache is also a 
valid OpenCMS user, an Error is reported to the user in German, and 
there is no detail (in the see deails button), and nothing is reported 
to catalina.out.

Has anyone found a way around this?
