RE: [users@httpd] overriding mod_auth_sspi from .htaccess

Plain text please...

It looks like you are attempting to nest authentication realms. HTTP 1.1 doesn't support this (to be more precise, the protocol assumes a single layer of authentication).

When the browser requests a URL aand gets a "401 Unauthorized" back, it logs the pathname part of the URL as a "realm", caches the username/password and sends them automatically with every subsequent request in the same realm. If it encounters another realm *inside* the main realm, the browser has no mechanism for distinguishing the two and the behaviour is usually unpredictable and browser-depenedent.

Subject: [users@httpd] overriding mod_auth_sspi from .htaccess


Platform - Win2000, Apache/2.0.47, mod_auth_sspi/1.0.1, PHP/4.3.2

Hi there,

In my httpd.conf file I currently have the following -

<Directory />
        AllowOverride All
 AuthName "TTL Chiltern"
        AuthType SSPI
        SSPIAuth On
        SSPIAuthoritative On
        SSPIDomain HIGHWYCOMBE
        require valid-user
</Directory>

within a virtualhost directive.  I have tried to override this in a directory using an .htaccess file with the following single line -

AuthType Basic

but when accessing scripts within this directory I still  get the NTLM headers.

Can someone please suggest how I might get around this.

TIA

Scott
