I'm trying to setup galaxy to run with apache and external authentication - and I can't get this to work. (This is a not a galaxy question per se, more of an apache question, but hopefully you can still help me).

Gordon,

The RewriteRules should work with a Location directive, but outside of it:

ReWriteRule ^/galaxy$ /galaxy/ [R] RewriteRule ^/galaxy(.*) http://localhost:8080$1 [P] <Location /galaxy> AuthType Basic AuthName "Restricted Files" AuthUserFile /home/gordon/httpd_passwords Require user gordon </Location>

I imagine the Alias directive would cause problems with the RewriteRules.
