Summary: Windows>=Vista+mod_auth_digest+command line=problems
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.3-HEAD
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows Vista
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: mod_auth_digest
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Use of mod_auth_digest on Vista & beyond = show stopper at command line.
This was on Win Vista, 2.3 @ r1040791 running at command line. Tested same on
Win7.
This does not affect Apache running as a service, even running as limited user,
so I'm not sure quite to where to place this. It's per design but design
doesn't always work.

The Windows user's options are to turn off the UAC, run as Administrator or not
load/use mod_auth_digest when running/testing from the command line.
When running as a service, the files are physically created.
C:\Users\JustMe\AppData\Local\Temp\authdigest_shm.4216
C:\Users\JustMe\AppData\Local\Temp\authdigest_shm.4668
I thought possibly writing to the logs directory might work but no again;

c:/Apache23/logs/authdigest_5804.shm
I then wondered how does the SSLSessionCache do it but that is well over my
head and it does not leave a file behind.
Technically I guess this is minor and probably should just be documented.
Either added to the mod_auth_digest doc or the Windows platform doc with a link
to it from the mod_auth_digest doc.
