I tried to use the example script from the documentation
for basic authen. with my CGI version of PHP4 under Apache 1.3.12/SSL:

<?
    header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\"My Realm\"");
    header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
    header("pragma: no-cache");
    echo "Text to send if user hits Cancel button\n";
    exit();
?>

Always the Apache server responses with a 500 internal 
server error. Excerpt from the script log:

%% [Tue Mar 21 05:41:21 2000] GET /cgi-bin/php4/kunden/index.php3 HTTP/1.0

Text to send if user hits Cancel button




Excerpt from the error_log:
