Re: fsockopen with apache auth

Christian, Thanks for the input. I changed the Authentication to Authorization and made sure I didn't have more than one /r/n while I was making the request. Alas, no joy. Being as the Host header begins HTTP/1.1 does that mean I need to make a different type of request? Could the host be refusing a http1.0 "BASIC" request and want a different type? thanks, bill Cristian Draghici wrote: > 1. according to RFC1945 you should say "Authorization" and not > "Authentification". > 2.
