Buchan,
First of all I want to point out you don't need to email both the mailing list and me, the point of the mailing list is that there is one reply address =P Simply email hobbit at hswn.dk (without modifying the subject) and everyone will get your message. It will make it more visually friendly =)
Secondly, there are three different "virtual directories" requiring the three different authentication statements. The problem is that there are now three places to login at, the /hobbit and /hobbit-cgi and /hobbit-cgisec and it gets very irritating. I don't mind logging in once, but when you navigate through pages and have to login again for the same application is looks pretty ridiculous.
Can you show me an example of your LDAP authentication configuration (on Apache), Buchan?

If you use the same AuthName, most likely you users should not need to log in more than once. Was there a reason you used different ones.
