Hi Frank,
That has nothing to do with the Apache or OpenBSD at all.
All the authentications are done at your web app.
So, the question should be: Can my web app do that?
Regards,
Rosen

I'm wondering if an OpenBSD box with apache can solve this problem...
A website requires authentication to access and the are a limited
number of accounts setup (within web application, not .htaccess) on
that website; so accounts are shared. Of course, this situation
causes problems when two people use the same account, since the second
login will disconnect the first one. The simple/ideal solution is to
create more accounts, but in this case, that is not possible.
I did manage to setup a local OpenBSD box with apache to access the
real site using mod_proxy (ProxyPass ProxyPassReverse). Today's
problem is unrelated to my previous question on this topic.
But I don't see anything in docs about software that will add yet
another layer to manage the connections to remote server. When a user
log's into local webserver; it would be nice if I could present a list
of used/unused account/connections to remote server/website. Is this
possible? Is it possible to block access to local server when
accounts on remote server are already in use?
