What is it? realm is the identification of the protection space on the server (or possibly servers, if using Digest) The Windows Domain is a division of users for administrative purposes, not related to the server other than that there must at least be an administrative trust between the administrative domain of the server and the administrative domain of the user. Quote from RFC2617 The realm directive (case-insensitive) is required for all authentication schemes that issue a challenge. The realm value (case-sensitive), in combination with the canonical root URL (the absoluteURI for the server whose abs_path is empty; see section 5.1.2 of [2]) of the server being accessed, defines the protection space. These realms allow the protected resources on a server to be partitioned into a set of protection spaces, each with its own authentication scheme and/or authorization database. The realm value is a string, generally assigned by the origin server, which may have additional semantics specific to the authentication scheme. Note that there may be multiple challenges with the same auth-scheme but different realms. Regards Henrik
