Hi,

I should have given more context.  I am trying to protect a directory
of static content using the standard login dialog of the browser,
purely via .htaccess.  So there is no form to check.

I have an alternative solution that does wrap everything using a php
script and that functions fine, but that's overkill for static content.

Best,

Dirk

I am using AuthLDAPInitialBindAsUser on, AuthLDAPSearchAsUser on and AuthLDAPCompareAsUser on, and that works brilliantly as long as the user enters a password, either correct or incorrect.

The user has to close the browser and restart it before trying again.
