Hi All,

I would love to hear your thoughts on this.

I am using the htpasswd plugin located here:
http://wota.jp/svn/rails/plugins/branches/stable/htpasswd/

To validate access against a .htpasswd file.  The plugin is working
great but currently if you fail to get the PW correct and generate a 401
(Unauthorized) the user is presented with a completely blank page.

My goal is to at least redirect them to the home page or present a
message saying their login attempts have failed.


Here is what i have tried:
#application.rb
  rescue_from Htpasswd::UnknownUserAccount, :with => :http_status_code

def http_status_code
  redirect_to "http://someplace.com";
end

 ^---- The above does nothing and does NOT catch anything.  I have tried
with Htpasswd::Error, and ActiveResource::UnauthorizedAccess  --
nothing.



I have also tried a before filter with a method in application.rb
calling htpasswd but i get an error saying the htpasswd method does not
exist.

Any input or even a starting place where i can begin researching would
be great .


THANK YOU!
