Re: [users@httpd] Basic Authentication: Firefox requires twice while Explorer only once

[Guillermo Pallarés]

Thank you Joshua for the AllowOverride tip. I didn't know that. I have tried the solution you posted, but it doesn't seem to solve the problem; I guess that is not exactly the same problem because in my case autenticathion does work fine always but with the combination Windows and Firefox. Any other hint?

It isn't needed here.  Autentication seems to be working fine for Internet Explorer clients, and Firefox under Linux. The problem is with Firefox under windows (I have only tried Windows xp).  After the usual authentication window, a second Windows xp window appears (see bottom of the mail), requiring the user and password again. If data is correct, then everything works fine, but I guess this is not a desirable situation.
