[rt-users] command line interface with Apache Authentication

Mon Mar 22 18:56:59 EST 2004

HI
The command line interface works fine with the RT internal 
Authentication, but doesn't seems to work when I switch to the Apache 
Authentication.

Apache Authentication by web, works fine!

All I set for command line configuration are
export RTDEBUG=3
export RTSERVER=http://rt:8000/ - this is the place I go in the web to 
access RT.

My UNIX username, the RT username and RT unix-username are same.

Am I missing any setup???

I looked at all the log files, rt.log (RT_Config) & error_log, 
rt_error_log and rt_access_log (apache), no error msg, only got
rt_access_log :
128.250.37.70 - - [23/Mar/2004:10:32:06 +1100] "POST //REST/1.0/show 
HTTP/1.0" 401 470

with internal RTl Authentication - work fine
