Yes, it does since AuthLDAP requires additional binding and search information in order to get the user info.

CentOS release 5 (Final) and Apache/2.2.3
Is it possible that .htpasswd acts differently from LDAP?

Forgot all about that - I originally had the lines...
AuthName "Hobbit Monitoring"
Then I added the 1, 2 and 3 to the ends of them to identify/confirm where
the secondary and tertiary logins were coming from (obviously, the Alias
statements =)
There was no change before/after the number after the AuthName
Then I don't know why it didn't work. I have the following configuration
in my httpd.conf:
ScriptAlias /hobbit-cgi/ "/data1/hobbit/cgi-bin/"
<Directory "/data1/hobbit/cgi-bin">
...
AuthName "LDAP-Kennung"
AuthType basic
AuthLDAPEnabled on
...
require user userA userB userC
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /hobbit-seccgi/ "/data1/hobbit/cgi-secure/"
<Directory "/data1/hobbit/cgi-secure">
...
AuthName "LDAP-Kennung"
AuthType basic
AuthLDAPEnabled on
...
require user userB userD
</Director>
When userB calls a script under /hobbit-cgi he has to authenticate against
LDAP. When he then calls a script under /hobbit-seccgi he doesn't have to
authenticate again, because apache regognizes the he already authenticated
against the AuthName "LDAP-Kennung".
