Hi Mark.
Yay! I followed your provided links back to
http://ammonlauritzen.com/blog/2006/11/20/no-groups-file/
The author of this site mentions that some of the behaviors previously
performed by mod_auth are split into separate modules. In addition to
the modules loaded by default on Leopard Server, I loaded
mod_authz_user
mod_auth_basic
mod_authz_groupfile
Everything is peachy now. Many thanks!
