The "might" was there originally, and I think the point of "might" is that
we don't know whether you, user, don't have access because you are logged out
(but you do have a username/password combination that gives you access to the
resource) or because you are not authorised to use it, and you won't be able to
access the resource *even if* you log in.
Also, where does one put an urlBack in the sentence "Please request
authorization from the server administrators."?
