texte = Well, the [Authenticate] code is pretty straight forward, and has not changed for years. It basically just sends a 401 Err response back to the client browser.If you are not seeing a problem with IE or Netscape browsers, then I would suspect there may be a bug with one or more Safari versions, with regard to handling the 401 Err header. Can you provide specific information on the Safari versions you have seen this on?
