Hi folks,

Is Kerberos authentication for a web service still possible if that  
service is placed behind an Apache reverse proxy that also happens to  
use Kerberos authentication?

I'd like to do this for a MediaWiki server that already uses Kerberos  
authentication, but I suspect that doing so would break that  
mechanism, thus preventing users from automatically logging into their  
wiki accounts.

Is this assumption correct?

Thanks,

Jaap
