Package: libapache2-mod-auth-pam
Version: 1.1.1-6.1
Followup-For: Bug #394097


libapache2-mod-auth-pam _does_ work with latest apache, but doesn't fall 
completely under the hood of AuthType Basic anymore (real reason is not clear 
to me)

As long as mod_authn_pam isn't packaged with Debian, user or script must add:

AuthBasicAuthoritative Off

to make it work.

The error reported by Apache is quite confusing if directive above is missing

[Sun Nov 26 16:50:28 2006] [error] Internal error: pcfg_openfile() called with 
NULL filena
[Sun Nov 26 16:50:28 2006] [error] [client 192.168.1.99] (9)Bad file 
descriptor: Could not

My current authentication sheme within dav_svn.conf is now:

  AuthType Basic        

  # Use next two statement with mod_auth_pam
  AuthPAM_Enabled on
  AuthBasicAuthoritative Off

  # Use next statement when using mod_authn_pam (notice extra 'n' in name)
  # AuthBasicProvider pam

  AuthName "Subversion repositiory access"

  Require valid-user
