Sorry, maybe I'm not being clear. Galaxy is listening on http://galaxy.mycompany.com:8080 Users access Galaxy via http://mycompay.com/galaxy If users go to http://galaxy.mycompany.com:8080, they get the External Authentication message. From here I want them to be redirected to http://mycompay.com/galaxy which is where they will be authenticated. Users never see http://galaxy.mycompany.com:8080....they will always see http://mycompay.com/galaxy On Tue, Oct 13, 2015 at 12:36 PM, Eric Rasche <esr@tamu.edu> wrote:

We have Apache set up to authenticate users off our LDAP. If they authenticate correctly, they are then forwarded on through the proxy.
So, mod_auth_ldap? Or not? You say "forwarded" so I'm thinking you may not mean this.
What I want is to prevent users from hitting the galaxy URL directly. If they, do I want to automatically redirect them to the proxy.
Under mod_auth_ldap this should be done for you.
(Worst case scenario you could write some mod_rewrite logic that checks for the remote_user header and returns a 301 if it's missing with the location of your login page)

That's expected for External User Auth if you don't have the
REMOTE_USER
header set properly.

What external auth mechanism are you using?
