I want to do basic authentication with reverse proxy...My relevant config is
as follows :

ProxyRequests Off
<Directory proxy:*>
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from all
</Directory>

<Directory proxy:/xxx/>
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "By Invitaion Only"
    AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/passwd/passwords
    Require valid-user
</Directory>

ProxyPass             /xxx/               http://a.b.c.d/xxx
ProxyPassReverse /xxx/               http://a.b.c.d/xxx

File /etc/httpd/conf/passwd/passwords exists with one user name and
password.
When I try basic auth for a normal dir, it works. It asks me for a user id
and password. But when I tried with proxied dir, it does not ask me .

order of loading of modules is as follows :

LoadModule proxy_module       modules/libproxy.so
LoadModule auth_module        modules/mod_auth.so

AddModule mod_proxy.c
AddModule mod_auth.c


Apache/1.3.27 (Unix)  (Red-Hat/Linux)

What could the problem be ?  Any pointers would be appreciated.
