"Logged in as ?" -- http auth not working ?

[tom.welsh at bt.com]

Hi Rob,

Take a look at "Authentication and authorisation in the CGI's"  section
off the docs, or alternatively jump to it from faq F0048. this solved a
similar problem for me a few years ago.

This is not the problem, I already had the htpasswd user be a valid
contact, and the default_user_name was already commented out.

I am not sure what it is, except that I suspect it is something in my
apache configs.
