Note Submitter: auke@muze.nl ---- Someone gave me a simple solution to the 'logout' problem: add some sort of timestamp to the basic realm you send in the WWW_Authenticate header. Mine now is: $realm="RealmName ( ".strftime("%c",time())." )";. (btw: the problem was: 1) IE4 asks for the page one more time after a 401, defeating sending a 401 once to force a user to log on again. and 2) IE4 remembers the password, and puts it default in the logon window. Changing the realm solves these problems, not the 'logon failed' message of NS though).
