John J Lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: I agree this is a bug.
Senthil -- re "1)", the paragraph you refer to (quoted by the OP) is relevant. The fact that it doesn't specifically mention redirection is not relevant. Re "2)": I don't know how digest auth works, but the paragraph you quote from appears to be there for explanation rather than for prescribing how digest auth or HTTP work (i.e. it appears to be "non-normative"). This bug doesn't say that redirected requests shouldn't contain the Authorization header. It says that the Authorization header for an old request shouldn't be sent with a new request (though it may turn out the new one is equal to the old one in some cases). ---------- nosy: +jjlee _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3819> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
