Maybe the requested files are in different directories? Normaly the browser will only send back the username/password to the same a or child directory. >The other aspect I can not understand is that when the perl NTLM module >is running, it will often exit from sub's other than the handler sub. ie >the handler sub is always called first which calls other sub's but >whilst executing these other sub''s , it appears that something seems to >cut processing short & passes control back to apache - the perl code >never gets a chance to return to the handler module & exit code with a >'return xx'. Apache has a timeout, so maybe you hit that and Apache itself kill your handler.... >The other error I get is that the username/password is passed ok from >the SMB server verification phase, but then in subsequent calls to the >SMB server, the username/password fails - this occurs during the one >entry of username/password but the SMB server is contacted several times >for verification ( I also check the username & password in the script >before thay are submitted to the SMB server so I know they are correct.) >Would this be because of timeout in the SMB to respond. Somebodyelese also reported this and I currently debugging it. It maybe releated to some problems of the underlying C library.

Yes, as I said before it's a challange response cycle is taking place, which takes 3 steps Gerald ------------------------------------------------------------- Gerald Richter ecos electronic communication services gmbh Internetconnect * Webserver/-design/-datenbanken * Consulting Post: Tulpenstrasse 5 D-55276 Dienheim b.
