SSL client certificate authentication OR basic auth
January 04, 2012 01:52PM
Hi,

I would like to allow authentication with client certificates or, if none is availabe, http basic auth as a fallback. In Apache, it is possible to do a "FakeBasicAuth", i.e. Apache will pass the certificate's DN as a user name to the basic auth module. Does nginx somehow support this scenario?

Thanks,
sphere
