Do you have htdigest2 ? On gentoo this one worked the way the mythdocs said
it should work.
Check /var/www/htdigest to see if you have something like:
MythTV:2thLDwg.jd.j1gfds
where it is username then : then some cryptic string..
Is it possible to disable this htdigest authentication and access the
> web-page without authorization?
If you just want to disable this just comment out these four keys:
# AuthType Digest
# AuthName "MythTV"
# AuthUserFile /var/www/htdigest
# Require valid-user
# BrowserMatch "MSIE" AuthDigestEnableQueryStringHack=On
I do not recommend this if you are going to make this web page accessible to
the internet as if a webbot finds your page all your recordings will be
deleted when the bot follows the links on the page. Search for googlebot in
this mailing list.
