Hi guys,

im trying to work out if something is possible while i try to move a server 
from apache to nginx

i currently have a .htaccess file that looks something like this

require valid-user
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Admin Access Only"
AuthUserFile /pwds
Satisfy any
order deny,allow
allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
deny from all

Im trying to make it so that if the allow from addresses don't match it will 
then try to use basic Auth instead,
this method works in apache however i can get it to work in nginx, is it 
possible to do it and if so how?
