"The HTTP Authentication hooks in PHP are only available when it is
running as an Apache module and is hence not available in the CGI
version. In an Apache module PHP script, it is possible to use the
header() function to send an "Authentication Required" message to the
client browser causing it to pop up a Username/Password input window.
Once the user has filled in a username and a password, the URL
containing the PHP script will be called again with the predefined
variables PHP_AUTH_USER, PHP_AUTH_PW, and AUTH_TYPE set to the user
name, password and authentication type respectively. These predefined
variables are found in the $_SERVER and $HTTP_SERVER_VARS arrays. Both
"Basic" and "Digest" (since PHP 5.1.0) authentication methods are
supported. See the header() function for more information."
Transparent authentication *does not* use HTTP authentication. It falls
back to HTTP authentication if it has to.
I'm checking Windows Integrated Authentication in IIS 6.0 and I'm using
PHP 5.0.1.
PHP is working as an ISAPI-module. Is this the problem? Is that why the
authentication is not working automatically? (without logging in with
username and password at first)
Or is the version of PHP the problem? Should it be larger than 5.1.0 ?

I'm trying with IE6 and IE7...
5.0.1 is very old now, you really should upgrade to the latest version.
However, I highly doubt that's the cause of your issue.
You need to understand that with transparent authentication PHP does not
get involved at all - everything happens before PHP gets called. As I
said in my other email, get it working with ASP, then try it with PHP.
You'll find the support around ASP far more helpful with this problem
than the PHP community.
