Is there a archived list?  I've tried searching, but I
can't find anything.  I have read through the docs and
it doesn't seem that hard get working, but everytime I
get a username/password prompt in my browser, it will
not accept my responses.

It is a redhat 9 box.

I have a .htaccess file in /var/www/cgi-bin/vqadmin

I have doublechecked what is supposed to be in the
file.  I used vi and not windows for editing of all my
files.

.htaccess
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/vqadmin.passwd
AuthName vQadmin
require valid-user
satisfy any

Next I change the .htaccess mod and owner
chown apache .htaccess 
chmod 600 .htaccess

I've tried nobody, but it won't even prompt me for the
login, so I know apache is right.  also when I do a ps
-aux |grep httpd it says user apache is the one
running httpd.

/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
<directory "/var/www/cgi-bin/vqadmin">
deny from all
Options ExecCGI
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Order deny,allow
</directory>

I created my vqadmin.passwd by using the following
command:

htpasswd -bc /etc/httpd/conf/vqadmin.passwd admin
admin

The box is on a local network assigned the ip
192.168.10.2

I have tried accessing the
http://server/cgi-bin/vqadmin/vqadmin.cgi

replace server with:
127.0.0.1
192.168.10.2
localhost

none of these work on the server.  The browser used
was lynx.

Next I tried it with mozilla and konqueror on the same
subnet using:
http://192.168.10.2/cgi-bin/vqadmin/vqadmin.cgi

none of this has allowed my to get past the login
prompt.  

I compiled using:

./configure
make
make install-strip

It's a fresh install of redhat 9

When installing I picked everything under the
webserver option except tux and squid.

please help me before I pull all of my hair out.

thanks!


David
