Three remedies are suggested: 1. Always use the trailing slash when requesting directories; 2. Change the ServerName to match the name you are using in the URL; and/or 3. Set UseCanonicalName off. I already verified that the trailing slash works. Which is is the "best practices" solution?
I would recommend doing this: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/Recipes/CanonicalHostNames which assures that you are redirected to the canonical name before any authentication happens. But if you are looking for an easy solution, 3 works just fine (and is the default in all recent versions of apache).
