AFAICS, the authn_* modules can be used by any of auth_basic, auth_session, auth_digest modules. But these three modules are not useful without authn_core, because there is no way to switch them on without AuthType. So I would suggest to add authn_core as dependency of auth_basic, auth_session, auth_digest. This would implicitly add authn_core to the list of modules that may be used without <IfModule> guard. |
