Synopsis

                     SSLFakeBasicAuth
Server config, virtual host
Not available in Apache v2

This directive makes Apache pretend that the user has been logged in using basic authentication (see Chapter 5), except that instead of the username you get the one-line X509, a version of the client’s certificate. If you switch this on, along with SSLVerifyClient, you should see the results in one of the logs. The code adds a predefined password.
