htaccess fails on proxy?

[Carlos Marangon]

hello!

I log in a directory protected by .htaccess and after I log in,
I close all windows. So I retype the address for the directory
in the browser address bar and it allows me to reenter the directory
without ask for login and password.

When I open a window even in a computer beside mine it allows
reenter the directory.

Why does it happen?

Are you talking about accessing the directory using php? if yes then that is
because php is server side and has access to the dir.

But if your question has nothing to do with php then i am assuming you are
using IIS.
If yes then you must use the IIS control panel, you cannot use .htaccess
with IIS.

I had a similar problem. Apache 1.3.22 .. Password in with IE then use
Netscape on the same machine and it lets me in... but not the other way
arround... and depends how I address the directory.. trailing slashes,
spcific .html file etc..

not sure about the cause...
