I made some progress : 1. After building .htpasswd with admin:<"test", but encrypted>, move it to ./admin (important: otherwise, the root is password-protected) 2. Aim at http://localhost:8000/admin => Problem: When I type admin/test, it loops endlessly instead of letting me in: ======= 401 Unauthorized WWW-Authenticate: Digest qop="auth", realm="localhost", nonce="1202751193" ======= Could it be that shttpd is using a difference hashing mechanism from the one used by http://users.abac.com/cgi-bin/pass.pl ? How do encrypt a shttpd-compatible password? I' ve also tried adding C:\SHTTPD\.htaccess with the following, to no avail: ======= AuthUserFile "C:\SHTTPD\admin\.htpasswd" AuthName "Please Enter User & PW" AuthType Basic require valid-user ======= Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
