I have done this fairly recently. Rather than go through it all here, I'll refer you to http://www.apachefriends.org/f/viewtopic.php?p=93012 which I think is the article I found with google to figure out how to get things working. Essentially you need to install a third-party module to take care of the logins. There are a couple of them out there, none of them updated for apache 2.2.x, but mysql-3.0.0 is close and a patch is available from another source which will bring it the rest of the way.
