Привет,
http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_howto.html#auth-simple

и ниже.

WWell,

Насколько я понял, можно

SSLVerifyClient      none
<Directory /usr/local/apache/htdocs/secure/area>
SSLVerifyClient      require
SSLVerifyDepth       5
SSLCACertificateFile conf/ssl.crt/ca.crt
SSLCACertificatePath conf/ssl.crt
SSLOptions           +FakeBasicAuth
SSLRequireSSL
AuthName             "Snake Oil Authentication"
AuthType             Basic
AuthUserFile         /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.passwd
require              valid-user
</Directory>

Это и есть решение ?
