Yes. The user from http must match the Observium user. You can also set a 'guest' user to be used if there is no matching user.

I'm very interested in this as well as I'm unable to get the Observium internal authentication to work with AD. Is there any instruction on how to use the http-auth (i assume for apache2) option?

Authentication
$config['auth_mechanism'] = "mysql"; # Available mechanisms: mysql (default), ldap, http-auth
Sets the authentication mechanism. Currently supported mechanisms are mysql, ldap and http-auth.
Set that option in your config.php file to http-auth and then configure as you normally would in your Apache httpd.conf or .htaccess file.
