I am trying to setup a RESTful web service where GET is open to all but
POST, PUT, and DELETE are restricted to authorized users. I have a
database of users that is checked using Basic Auth. So far, so good. I
*also* want to make it possible to issue certificates (from a
home-rolled CA) to users if they wish, so they can bypass the
username/password dialogues. Try as I might, I simply cannot get an
either/or setup working where certs are checked and basic auth is
skipped if a valid cert is found. No matter what, the Basic Auth dialog
always appears. It also appears that the <Limit> directive does not
work with RequireSSL directives? Is there a way to limit only certain
methods using SSL? I've tried +FakeBasicAuth but then the database
lookup code rejects the username (of course). Here's what my config
looks like right now. I would really appreciate any pointers or
suggestions. Thanks so much for your time.
