Let me guess. Red Hat 7 with htdig-3.2.0-2.011302.i386.rpm, right? The January 13/02 snapshot of 3.2.0b4 had a bug in the handling of Basic authorization. I suggest you try the 3.1.6 stable release, or a more recent snapshot of 3.2.0b4, which you'll have to rebuild from source. I really need to add this one to the FAQ. If I'm wrong, please provide details about ht://Dig version, snapshot date if applicable, where you got it, your OS version, and distribution version if it's Linux.
