Hi,
Have a client that need to use htaccess user/password to a directory under their main domain name; i.e. theirdomain.com/securedirectory/
They have added password protection via cPanel (htaccess), but it asks to enter username/password twice. :confused:
A search for articles on Google suggests that it has to do with the way
Set UseCanonicalName is either on or off and solution seems to be turning it off.
My concern is if this would create other issues, amybe to cgi scripts as suggested here:
http://www.dkfz-heidelberg.de/spec/linux/apache/apache.deb1.html
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/misc/FAQ-G.html
My question is, can this be set just for this client domain, or is it OK anyway to do for all domains on my server?
Many thanks,
- Vince
