Hi Again,
I should also mention this only happens with IE. When using Mozilla & Netscape I have no problems.

Everything seems to work fine when httpd is in single user mode as the 1 process has an understanding of what has been authenticated before hand & whethor it needs to re-authenticate subsequent requests from the same browser/user. ie with the request for one page there may be many items that need to be sent by the server (images, html,etc). When we go to several httpd process, it appears that the response to one request from a browser which may be made up of many files that need to be sent back, these requests can be handled by any of the http processes (which is ok by itself ) but when this occurs, a password request(and perhaps an SMB query) is made for each of the httpd process. The httpd processes appear to operate independently of each other, unless the browser sends all its requests down the 1 tcp channel. I have started to add to the code to log authentications to disc, so that each httpd process can also reference this disc file to verify if it has authenticated a user beforehand from another process. I hope I am going about this the right way.. My more immediate problem is that I am currently losing the contents of posted variables in a request packet whenever I use the AuthenNTLM module, but when I choose to use the standard mod_auth, my posted variables get through everytime. This problem occured with the AuthenNTLM code without any alterations. This problem is also intermittant. 4 out of 5 time the problem will occur. By inserting the line at the top of handler sub ' $printme = $r -> content ' I can see the posted variables get though to the perl module . Any ideas Thanks Adam ************************************************************************ The information in this e-mail together with any attachments is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
