5.6. From the Client's Point of View

If you run Apache using httpd1.conf, you will find you can access www.butterthlies.comas before. But if you go to sales.butterthlies.com,you will have to give a username and password.

5.6.1. The Config File

The file is httpd2.conf. These are the relevant bits:

...
AuthType Digest 
AuthName darkness
AuthDigestDomain  http://sales.butterthlies.com
AuthDigestFile /usr/www/APACHE3/ok_digest/digest_users

Run it with ./go 2. At the client end, Microsoft Internet Explorer (MSIE) v5 displayed a password screen decorated with a key and worked as you would expect; Netscape v4.05 asked for a username and password in the usual way and returned error 401 "Authorization required."
