  No, the "users" file doesn't authenticate anyone.  It just adds a
"known good" password to the request.  Some other module takes care of
authenticating the user.

  See doc/configurable_failover.  You should be able to add a statement
to the "authenticate" section saying "try FOO, and if that fails, try BAR".

  This is really not a recommended configuration, however.  It is
difficult to make it work well.

  Perhaps you could say *why* you need this, rather than asking how to
implement a particular solution.
