Does mod_jk work with basic Apache Authentication?
I'm trying to get basic Apache authentication on Apache 2.0.59 to work with
Tomcat 5.5.25 using mod_jk 1.2.25.
I've tried using variations of JkMount / JkUnmount to forward requests on to
Tomcat, but what always happens is that:
* any file served by Tomcat bypasses the apache authentication system.
* any file not served by Tomcat uses the apache authentication system.
Is it possible to use Apache HTTP server to secure files served by Tomcat?
Is there an alternative I should be looking at, such as using Apache 2.2,
mod_proxy_ajp?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I've been experimenting,
examining the source, and scouring the internet for the last few days and so
far I haven't determined if this should even work, let alone how to get it
to work.
Thanks,

Sorry, figured out the problem. If you see this behavior, try using Apache
<Location>elements instead of <Directory> elements.
