 Suggestion from [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 | Synopsis: Continuing problems with root directories of other drives
 | 
 | In your nonworking example, try changing
 | 
 |   Alias /cdir "C:/"
 | to
 |   Alias /cdir/ "C:/"
 | 
 | and see if that makes any difference.
 | 
 I changed the line in srm.conf to :
 
 Alias /cdir/ "C:/"
 
 with entry in access.conf still:
 
 <Directory "C:/">
 AuthUserFile users.acl
 AuthType Basic
 AuthName RestrictedInformation
 require user fred
 </Directory>
 
 Used URL: http://ip.address/cdir/
 
 Result: Provides index listing, but ignores user authentication.
 
 Used URL: http://ip.address/cdir
 
 Result: Provides index listing (shows trailing slash on client), but ignores
 user authentication again.
