[users@httpd] Authentication not checked in proxied directory

[Phil Endecott]

Dear Experts,

I'm surprised to find that authentication does not seem to be checked 
in a directory which I proxy to another local server:

        <Location /something>
                AuthName "my_auth_name"
                AuthType basic
                AuthPAM_Enabled off
                AuthBasicProvider dbd
                AuthDBDUserPWQuery "...sql..."
                require valid-user

                ProxyPass http://localhost:12345 smax=0 ttl=60
                ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:12345
        </Location>

I am able to access content from here without providing any credentials.

Is this the expected behaviour?

This is with 2.2.4.


Regards,

Phil.
