Hi,

I hope I arrived on the right spot for this question!

I have a directory which is protected with .htpasswd and .htaccess

When a protected page is unactive for a certain time the user is redirected to an Url outside the protected area and a CGI script deletes $ENV{'REMOTE_USER'}.

From this page the user has the ability to re-enter the protected area. This is where things go wrong:

The USER does NOT have to re-enter his username and password although $ENV{'REMOTE_USER'} is deleted as I did a check on this (if this is accurate at all?). How is this possible? And what can I do to have the USER re-enter his information or is this not possible?

Hopefully anybody can help me out?

Regards,

Raoul
