We have .htaccess on our site http://subdomain.site.com/:
AuthType Kerberos
AuthName "Internet ID"
require valid-user
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
On a sub directory of the site, http://subdomain.site.com/subdirectory/ we have an .htaccess:
AuthType none
Satisfy any
The reason is that on this subdirectory/ we have a different authentication mechanism and do not want to use kerberos as authentication. The problem though is that in chrome the .htaccess authentication still pops up but firefox, opera, IE do not prompt for this authentication before loading the page.
I am having trouble understanding how a server side configuration could be presented to the end user differently depending on the browser? Is there something in my subdirectry .htaccess that I am missing ?
