Author MediaWiki and LDAP authentication

I have MediaWiki 1.5.3 installed and running on OES-NW w/SP4a (worked my way
through the ":" and ";" snafu, then found the fix here ;-) The powers want
it LDAP authenticated and it refuses to pop a login dialog. I have other
sites using "any valid user" and have configured this one identically.

Doesn't ask for login:

<Directory APACHE:/webroot/wiki1>
Options IncludesNOEXEC MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
AuthLDAPDereferenceAliases finding
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Protected"
require valid-user
AuthLDAPAuthoritative On
AuthLDAPURL ldaps://LDAPServer/ou=OU3,ou=OU2,ou=OU1,o=TheBigO?cn?sub
</Directory>

Works:

<Directory APACHE:/webroot/secure1>
Options IncludesNOEXEC MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
AuthLDAPDereferenceAliases finding
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Protected"
require valid-user
AuthLDAPAuthoritative On
AuthLDAPURL ldaps://LDAPServer/ou=OU3,ou=OU2,ou=OU1,o=TheBigO?cn?sub
</Directory>
