Hi,
can you describe a bit more your use case? Are you trying to authorize
OGC service calls? Or is it just the administration UI that you’re trying to get into?
In any case, I believe you should connect to GeoServer directly first, and then
setup proxy authentication so that GeoServer uses and trusts the authentication
performed by Apache:

Hi,
i have a Geoserver 2.8 (deployed on Tomcat 7) behind an Apache Webserver.
The Apache has a htaccess for http://serverWithTomcat/geoserver/*
The authentication on the Apache is done against a Ldap directory and works
fine. After the authentication from the Apache i get another authentication
for Geoserver Realm. After the geoserver realm authentication i get another
authentication from the apache and so on. The authentications don’t fail, i
guess it has to be some kind of session/redirect problem.
We have to keep the authentication at the Apache, because the Apache is in
our DMZ. Can i turn off this geoserver realm authentication and just keep
the authentication for login to the backend?
Cheers,
Max
