Hi,
mod_auth has to be able to read /etc/shadow in order to check the password. Therefore, www-data (the user running apache2) has to have enough privileges. On my etch system, I had to : 1/ chgrp shadow /etc/shadow 2/ Edit /etc/group and add www-data (the user running apache2) to the members of "shadow" group. Hope this helps, Flavien. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
