Unfortunately, that doesn't tell us very much. The "viewauth" URL you are requesting is *supposed* to request authentication. The problem is that, apparently, sometimes the site is requesting authentication when we don't want it to. Either users are being incorrectly redirected to the viewauth script, or, the view script is requiring authentication when it shouldn't. The thing that's weird is that it apparently isn't happening all the time. Take a look at the transcript at the end of this message. I captured it using "script" and "telnet", nothing fancy. I truncated it after the first line of HTMLese. As you can see, the web server is spewing everything it should, and not asking for authentication. I'm wondering if that "fd1" before the start of the HTML is relevant, an unrelated bug, or an error in my transcript. I'm hoping to get a chance to inspect the Apacghe logs tonight when I get home. Maybe they'll shed some light on the issue. ----- Begin transcript ----- $ telnet www.gnhlug.org 80 Trying 199.125.75.9... Connected to hive.colo.mv.net (199.125.75.9). Escape character is '^]'.
