Not necessarily, because I can detect in the proxy module when the server responds with a 401 (need authentification) and in this case, I re-send a request with a authentification field if the user is already authentified on the proxy. And this, without any browser's cooperation. This is why I need to share some data between different servers. But, in another hand, this means more work for Apache and certainly taller response time.
