Hi. I have been using Orion's basic authentication to secure parts of our website without any problems. (See http://kb.atlassian.com/content/atlassian/howto/securingdirectory.html):
We are now going to build the same functionality for WAP but the basic authentication doesn't work as expected. I think that the problem is that the server (Orion) sets the HTTP header Connection to 'Close' but I'm not sure. When I use Apache and basic authentication everyhing works fine. FYI: If I connect manually to Orion and move the keep-alive header last (as Explorer does) Orion doesn't close the connection... Does anyone know what's going on (since I can't find a logical explaination)?
