I have configured mod_auth_pam for Apache and secured a directory with an
.htaccess file:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Secure Area"
require group staff
require user chris
Now, I would like to control the local browser window's authentication cache
via PHP. For example, how do I clear the cache of a browser window thereby
forcing the user to log back in? I have tried:
Header( "WWW-authenticate: basic realm="Secure Area");
Header( "HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
but this isn't clearing the cache.
Regards,
Chris
