Linux elite.sitrantor.es 2.0.33 #2 Tue Apr 21 20:17:49 MET DST 1998 i586
Apache compiled with the php3 and mysql modules
>Description:
When opening a URL containing a .htaccess file doesn't prompt for a username
and password, instead, it opens the page, ignoring the file. I corrected the
problem deleting the 'AuthType Basic' directive, giving this a server error
and putting it back in the file, restoring it as it was before.
>How-To-Repeat:
The corrected URL is http://elite.sitrantor.es/~jorge
The non-corrected URL is http://www.sevilla.net/~paco
>Fix:
As described above, but obviously not the way :)
