Hi Dustin,

As the htaccess authentication is provided by Apache, you can certainly 
use any authentication Apache supports (LDAP, SQL etc.) See the 
following Apache manual pages:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html - htaccess 
authentication howto
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authn_dbd.html - SQL authentication
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authnz_ldap.html - LDAP 
authentication

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Andy
