I recently updated Apache 1.3 to 2.0 and I'm seeing some strange
behavior with the directory listings. In my doc root, I have two
directories.
public/
private/
I setup private to use BaseAuth using a .htaccess file and public does
not have
a .htaccess file.
Now, If I type in http://localhost/ the directory listing show just
public. If I then hit http://localhost/private I get the password
prompt. I enter the password in correctly and I see the contents of
private. Now the confusing part is
sometimes after I've logged in, if I go back to http://localhost it
shows both public and private. Its almost like, the directory listing
checks to see if you
have access to the directoies before listing them.
So my question is, how do I make private always show up in the
directory listing. If I remove the .htaccess file it will show up but
then it won't be secured. This was also working perfectly in 1.3.
Any ideas?
