GitHub user mitpjones edited a comment on the discussion: [Q/A] (Dubbo version
3.3.1) Where can I find an example of using the Auth plugin?
I have changed the provider password as follows
```
provider:
auth: true
username: admin
password: notadmin
authenticator: basic
```
the consumer is commented out as follows
```
#consumer:
#auth: true
#username: admin
#password: notadmin
```
but the call from the consumer to the provider is still successfull
```
Wed Aug 06 07:32:39 NZST 2025 Receive result ======> Hello world
```
I would expect the call to fail as I have configured the provider with auth:
true
When debugging I can see that the authenticate() method in the
org.apache.dubbo.auth.BasicAuthenticator is being called so I am sure that the
configuration parameters are being obeyed but it is not throwing an exception
from this code block
```
if (!Objects.equals(authHeaderValue,
invocation.getAttachment(Constants.AUTHORIZATION_HEADER))
&& !Objects.equals(authHeaderValue,
invocation.getAttachment(Constants.AUTHORIZATION_HEADER_LOWER))) {
throw new RpcAuthenticationException("Failed to authenticate, maybe
consumer side did not enable the auth");
}
```
