Auth - Auhtz module session?

Hello,

I've written a ldap auth-authz module in mod_perl but when I give in
wrong username/pass I need to close my browser in order to get the login
screen again. When I try to refresh without closing I'm getting the
following message wich is obvious


Authorization Required

This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the
document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad
password), or your browser doesn't understand how to supply the
credentials required.

Thanks,
Ward

First make sure you're returning the right response code - eg. if the
password is wrong but you return a 2xx or 3xx to the browser instead of
401, the browser will think it's fine and just keep using the same
credentials.

Also get yourself a copy of the Web Developer's Toolbar for Firefox - it
includes options to clear browser authentication, cache and cookies and
lots of other very useful tools for mod_perl development.
