[users@httpd] Apache authenticate against Drupal user database?
Is it possible for Apache to authenticate users against a database kept
by Drupal / PHP / MySQL?
I'm using proxy_ajp to handle requests for some applications hosted by
Tomcat. The problem with that is, anyone can access them. We'd like to
have any requests for https://server.host.name/application1 for example,
to be authenticated against this database.

I don't know about any module directly "out of the box" in Apache's
module collection itself. But it is certainly possible using an Apache/
mod_perl authentication module.
Look here for a first overview :

You may want to have a closer look at, for instance, Apache2::AuthCookieDBI.

See mod_authn_dbd. (You'll have to know the schema of the table being
used by Drupal.)
