Interestingly enough, I have reverse proxy working, with the following config.

I've obscured the port numbers. outside_port_number is the port number my server shows the outside world; inside_port_number is the one that calibre_server uses.

Code:

Listen outside_port_number

<VirtualHost *:outside_port_number>

<Proxy * >
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Book Repository"
Require valid-user
AuthBasicProvider file
AuthUserFile /path/to/authorized_users

</Proxy>

ProxyPass / http://localhost:inside_port_number/
ProxyPassReverse  / http://localhost:inside_port_number/

</VirtualHost>

From the outside I can use basic authentication, which then requires username and password.

Unfortunately, even with basic authentication enabled, neither Aldiko nor WordPlayer will authenticate to Calibre.
