So when the server sees that your subdomain needs authentication it pulls up the 401 document before the login screen even enters the picture. Delete the 401 entry and you'll be all set.</p> <p>NO I'M NOT THAT SMART! If you're the same person, you posted the solution on another forum. Nice catch though. And now I understand what 401 is for.</p> Fri, 23 Jul 2004 13:54:49 +0000 OtterBob comment 1155599 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
