I have an issue with login into my website using Apache .htaccess password over HTTPS. If I visit my site over https, the site comes up with a login dialog, but the browser has the little 'i' saying that it is not secure. If I press escape, I now have a secure connection (little padlock) and can login. However, once I have logged in successfully, I have a 401 error. If I then reload the page, everything is as it should have been if I had logged in successfully the first time. My .htaccess file looks like this: AuthName "Title" AuthType "Digest" AuthUserFile "/volume1/web/passwd/normal.pw" Require valid-user And I have setup my password credentials using this tutorial My server is a Synology NAS. Unfortunately there support is telling me it's the .htaccess file that is 'probably' redirecting incorrectly. I pointed out that I was using their tutorial and despite not having in depth knowledge on Apache .htaccess scripting, I don't see any redirecting and also I have followed their tutorial. Their response was to say that .htaccess files are not part of their remit. I am pretty sure the issue is not with the .htaccess file. Therefore I am asking this great community for help and suggestions. Thanks for your time, Harold
