[Moin-user] UserPreferences / Access Control

[Oliver Stüker]

Hi there,

I've just updated MoinMoin 1.1 from Revision 1.173 to 1.178 on SuSE Linux
8.2 (Apache 2.xx) and want to protect it from external access. But when I
add the follwing lines to the httpd.conf :

ScriptAlias /test_wiki     "/home/httpd/test_wiki/moin.cgi"
<Directory "/home/httpd/test_wiki">
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all

    AuthName "Test-Wiki"
    AuthType Basic
    AuthGroupFile /home/httpd/httpd.groups
    AuthUserFile /home/httpd/httpd.users
    require user test
</Directory>

MoinMoin doesn't remember my User-Login.
The Moin-Account ist properly created and the cookie saved by the browser
(Netscape FireBird and IE6).
But: the cookie-information is not read by MoinMoin.

When I remove the line "require user test" it works fine again.

Any Ideas?

...Oliver
