Usual document root is /var/www/html. I wanted to do the testing somewhere else
and /tmp/{my user} seemed like a good idea.
Usually on for the first time I go to the secure pages after starting a browser
I get a 401 on the first page. Then, when I authenticate I typically get a
number of images down. Then, if I go to another page I get a further 401,
usually on the first image to be loaded onto the page. However it is not
consistent and appears to happen pretty random. The 200 is appearing as I went
back to a page.
I have just noticed that in the access_log in these circumstances I see
[Tue Nov 08 11:46:56 2005] [info] (104)Connection reset by peer:
core_output_filter: writing data to the network

So it looks like PAM is somehow failing to authenticate against the DC.

What is the point of this directive?
Is /tmp/barhamd/ the full path to a directory?

I don't understand your URLs... http://cbrlux13/tmp/barhamd/ implies that you
have Docroot set to "/" - is that so?
Also, why do you get a 200 on the first hit to GET /tmp/barhamd/ ? You should
get a 401 here so the browser prompts for credentials.
Restart the browser and try again.
Rgds,
Owen Boyle
