Part of my Server config looks like this:
location /admin/ {
auth_basic "Restricted";
auth_basic_user_file /path/to/.htpasswd;

#rewrite any .xhtml page to page.php
rewrite ^/(.+)\.xhtml$ /$1.php last;
}

But when I go to mysite.com/admin/somefile.xhtml I don't get asked for
Authentification and the page will display.

If I comment out the rewrite rule then I do get asked for authentification.

Can anyone advise me on how to get authentification and the rewrite rule
working together?

Thanks

Dave
