I've got a server set up - apache 2.0.54, set up on debian sarge PPC. I have 3 virtual servers
enabled (2 plain, 1 SSL), and am trying to enable password authentication on one of them. Here's
what the virtualhost block for that server looks like:
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName xxx.com
DocumentRoot /var/xxx.com
ServerAdmin stantonrj@xxxxxxxx
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
Authtype Digest
AuthName "By Invitation Only"
AuthDigestFile /etc/apache2/passwd/xxx.com
Require user xxx
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/xxx-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/xxx-access.log common
LogLevel warn
</VirtualHost>
Using IE7, everything works as expected - type in this virtualhost name & I'm asked for a password.
Give the wrong password, doesn't let me in, give the correct password & it does let me in. However
in firefox 2 (windows) I can view the initial index.html fine, with no password being asked for. If
I try to browse to a subdirectory of the virtualserver in firefox, then I am asked for a password at
that point (and the authentication works). Why am I able to view the initial index.html page in
firefox without being prompted for a password?
Thanks.
