I found on page 
http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.http-auth.php 
an explanation of how to use $PHP_AUTH_USER to 
authenticate a user. Unfortunately, in PHP 4.2.1, this 
variable is no longer in use, as shown on page 
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php#reserved.variables.server 
 
Thank you

It's true, the default value for the register_globals directive in php.ini-dist is now off, not on.  The examples don't depend on register_globals, the actual text does.  Am changing docs now.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the
CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation 
problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/.
In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
