No, the default config for apache in Debian is that mod_status allows
connections only from localhost, but without any authentication needed.

The only reason it redirects is because I have apache configured to
redirect all unknown hostnames to kitenet.net -- which includes
localhost. So, once I changed it to use
http://kitenet.net/server-status, it worked ok.
