Hi,

mod_auth has to be able to read /etc/shadow in order to check the
password. Therefore, www-data (the user running apache2) has to have
enough privileges. On my etch system, I had to :

1/ chgrp shadow /etc/shadow
2/ Edit /etc/group and add www-data (the user running apache2) to
   the members of "shadow" group.


Hope this helps,

Flavien.
