Hello, I have a question that I am unsure about POST/require authentication. When a request arrives at a HTTP server, unless it already contains valid auth data, a 401 response is returned. This is very easy with GET and HEAD as the request contains data no more than the header. However with POST, the actual form data which can be more than MBs is uploaded immediately by the client without waiting for a response (unlike FTP). So my problem is:
- consider a POST request with no auth data and of 1MB size - folder is password protected by digest auth - at TriggerPOSTdocument, the server decides 401 - however even after the 401 is sent, data keeps coming from the client - the next keep-alive request is bad (garbage!!!) Any idea?
