Hi, I password protect some areas on some web sites on my server using .htaccess. I'm currently running httpd 2.0.49 compiled from source on a RedHat 7.3 web server. For some reason unknown to me, the logon screen never works on the first try. I'll fill out authentication dialog box, execute it, and the "Authentication Required" box reappears. If I re-enter the information a second time, the authentication works. This seems to occur on various browsers on both the XP and Mac platforms.
