Hi all,

My web server is runing under an HP-UX 10.20 workstation (but I think it's the 
same w/ other OS).

The documentation says we must following syntaxe if username have space in it :

require user Barbara Jenson

It doesn't work because Apache try to grand access to user w/ name "Barbara" or 
"Jenson". To make it work, I have to enclose the name in double cote like :

require user "laurent faillie"

Same problem w/ use of a redundant LDAP server :

     AuthLDAPURL ldap://ldap1.airius.com ldap2.airius.com/ou=People, o=Airius
     require valid-user

I have to use double cote around LDAP URL :

AuthLDAPURL "ldap://ldap2.sgp.st.com ldap1.sgp.st.com/ou=People"

or I got a misconfiguration error.
