I have my dmz box setup with reverse proxy to an internal webserver. I want to have to authenticate for all forward proxy requests, but I have to enter a password for the reverse proxy. I do not want to have to authenticate for the reverse proxy to the internal webserver. What must be modified in this config to achieve this? Thanks.


Code:

ProxyRequests On
ProxyVia On

<Proxy *>
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Login"
    AuthUserFile password.file
    Require valid-user
</Proxy>

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerName www.mydomain.com
     ProxyPass / http://www.mydomain.com/
     ProxyPassReverse / http://www.mydomain.com/
       <Proxy *>
      Order deny,allow
      Allow from all
      </Proxy>
</VirtualHost>

A solution might be to use 2 vhosts. On for the reverse proxy and the other for the forward proxy. Than the auth stuff can be placed into the forward proxy vhost.

So you may put the whole <Proxy ... block into a vhost.

Or disable auth with

Code:

<Location />
 Allow from all
 Satisfy Any
