Looks like you may have missed the statement at the top of the page upon which that code example appears: "The HTTP Authentication hooks in PHP are only available when it is running as an Apache module and is hence not available in the CGI version." That statement's been there since PHP3; presumably, the CGI restriction still remains in the current version. I don't remember seeing any statement either way, though, as to whether the module functionality remains Apache-only, or if it'd work with any of the server-plugin formats PHP supports...it might be worth trying to build as an NSAPI module instead of a CGI (I believe that'd mean adding a "--with-nsapi=path" to your configure options). --- Mark Roedel | "Blessed is he who has learned to laugh Systems Programmer | at himself, for he shall never cease LeTourneau University | to be entertained."
