Apache Module mod_authn_alias
Summary
This module allows extended authentication providers to be created
within the configuration file and assigned an alias name. The alias
providers can then be referenced through the directives
AuthBasicProvider or
AuthDigestProvider in
the same way as a base authentication provider. Besides the ability
to create and alias an extended provider, it also allows the same
extended authentication provider to be reference by multiple
locations.
The example below creates two different ldap authentication
provider aliases based on the ldap provider. This allows
a single authenticated location can be serviced by multiple
ldap hosts:
Example
LoadModule authn_alias_module modules/mod_authn_alias.so
<AuthnProviderAlias ldap ldap-alias1>
AuthLDAPBindDN cn=youruser,o=ctx
AuthLDAPBindPassword yourpassword
AuthLDAPURL ldap://ldap.host/o=ctx
</AuthnProviderAlias>
<AuthnProviderAlias ldap ldap-other-alias>
AuthLDAPBindDN cn=yourotheruser,o=dev
AuthLDAPBindPassword yourotherpassword
AuthLDAPURL ldap://other.ldap.host/o=dev?cn
</AuthnProviderAlias>
