This works with Apache 2.2.x.
To get mod_auth_shadow to work with apache 2.2.x
you can:
1)compile apache with --disable-auth-basic (assuming you don't need it of course)
2)specify directive "AuthBasicAuthoritative off".
In this case Apache will try basic auth first, (even though you told it NOT to.) Basic auth will fail, causing it to log a warning, then apache will try authentication by mod_auth_shadow.
