I have a developer who's using Apache 1.3.9 (supplied as Oracle HTTP server within Oracle

Otherwise he wants to continue to enforce his
authentication.

Thoughts?

My first thought is "Holy cow, 1.3.9 was released in August 1999. Why the heck are 
you using *that* dinosaur."
Closely followed by, no, that's probably not possible, and especially not in 
something that ancient.

If you're stuck with that apache version due to oracle, you might be able to pull that off by having an apache 2.2 with mod_rewrite & mod_proxy in front of your current server, and do your authentication/bypassing there. However, if your server is publicly accessible, i'd look far and wide for a different "bypass" mechanism (rather, no bypass at all).
