+### Mixed Auth via Leafnodes
+
+Server A starts with basic auth:
+
+```hcl
+port = 4222
+
+leaf {
+  port = 7422
+}
+
+authorization {
+  users = [{ user: 'A', pass: 'A'}]
+}
+```
+
+Second server has a leafnode connection that bounds it to a local account:
+
+```hcl
+leaf {
+  remotes = [
+    {
+      url: "nats://127.0.0.1:7422"
+      account: "A"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+
+accounts {
+  A { users = [{ user: 'A', pass: 'A'}]}
+}
+```
+
+Server A starts exposing the leafnode connection, then Server B connects to it:
+
+
+```sh
+nats-server -c a.conf  -DV
