I'm using Gallery 2.2.4 with Gallery Remote 1.5.1-b34. I've got the HTTP auth module enabled in my gallery, authenticating users via the REMOTE_USER variable set by another module in my webserver. This works fine through the web interface when I add a user to the Gallery 2 database and it ignores the password in the gallery db backend as expected.
However whilst Gallery Remote correctly detects and prompts for the Basic Authentication login, it subsequently fails to login to the Gallery unless the password in the Gallery database backend is the same as that used by the webserver authentication. I wouldn't have expected this?
