Thanks for the reply. No obvious re-write rule in my httpd.conf file. -----Original Message----- From: G.Lams@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:G.Lams@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: January 3, 2006 9:47 AM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [users@httpd] Authentication realms >Consider www.foo.com (hypothetically - I've just realized that's >actually a real site), and that /usr/local/apache2/htdocs is set as >AuthName "bar" in httpd.conf.

I had a problem similar to yours with a .htacess not being taken into account as it should be and I started being crazy when I discovered that there was a rewrite rule somewhere in my httpd.conf interfering. Perhaps it's the same with you. Kind regards, Gaël --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
