ldap_auth and disgest vs basic

Hi all,

Will the ldap module for Apache 2 work with an AuthType of Digest?

When I set it to Digest, I get;

Digest: client used wrong authentication scheme `Basic': /

I'm assuming my browser is having issues?

Snippet of my httpd.conf

AuthType Digest
AuthLDAPURL ldap://myladpserver
AuthzLDAPAuthorization off

There is no other instance of AuthType of no instance of Basic in my
file.

I don't have a local digest password file because I desire LDAP.

I don't know why you get this odd symptom, but I think LDAP+Digest
authentication will not work. In 2.2 you may be able to use
digest+file for authn and LDAP for authorization, though.

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the reply.

I think SSL will solve my problems and its easier to implement.

What do you think?
