Hi,
I've never tried requiring authentication via a header (only through
httpd.conf or .htaccess), but here's my best guess:
You're telling it what type of authentication to do, and you're telling
it what realm to authenticate to, but:
- You're not telling it what to require, and you're not telling it where
to find that info.
For example, with the httpd.conf format, you would have something like:
<Directory "/var/www/htdocs/foo">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "My Realm"
AuthUserFile /var/www/auth/htpasswd
require valid-user
</Directory>
Any reason you're not using .htaccess?
