Hi,
I picked up some code from Webmonkey on how to authentificate and track users. The script is here:
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/00/05/index2a.html?tw=programming
Now I tested this on one the websites I manage, which is hosted on Unix. I enter the write username and password combination and access is granted. However, when I tried this script on Windows-hosted websites (including my own), the script doesnt work properly anymore. While I'm not getting any errors, the username and password dont work anymore.
I dont understand why since I'm suing the same scripts. I read that Windows doesnt support Htaccess and htpaswd. Is this true? If so, what alternatives do I have (within PHP of course)? Or might there be something else I dont know about?
Thanks
