Precedence

Hi experts.

Environment :
Apache/2.2.9 (Debian) DAV/2 mod_jk/1.2.26 mod_apreq2-20051231/2.6.0 mod_perl/2.0.4 
Perl/v5.10.0

If I have the following configuration section :

	<Location /abc>
		AuthType My::Auth
		AuthName ABCtop
		PerlAuthenhandler My::Auth->authenticate
		PerlAuthzHandler My::Auth->authorize
		require valid-user
		ProxyPass http://some-other-host/abc
	</Location>

It seems that the proxying happens before the authentication is invoked.
(In other words, the authentication never happens, and the proxying happens unconditionally).

Is there any way to change this order ?
(aka, force the authentication to happen, and only proxy if it passes)
