Hi
Is there a way to legitimate access to a location (in my case an entire vhost) with certificate auth and - if no certificate is sent - a fallback to basic auth?
On Apache (from where I'm currently migrating) this is done with "FakeBasicAuth" as follows:
SSLVerifyClient require
SSLVerifyDepth 3
SSLCADNRequestFile /path/to/certs.pem
SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth
<Location />
Allow from all
AuthName 'MySite'
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /path/to/htpasswd
Require valid-user
</Location>
Thanks for your hints!
