Thanks for dropping in. Can you explain this comment about Radicale?

> Does not handle authentication by default, needs to be handled by the reverse proxy

My Radicale instance validates users on its own, using credentials in an htpasswd file with bcrypt hashes. Doesn't that count as authentication?

It looks like I missed the option to set an htpasswd file directly on the radicale server. After a second look at the Radicale documentation it looks like it supports both, htpasswd directly on the server or configured on the reverse proxy.
