WASD WATCH & username/pwd
WASD is started with /promiscous.
I access the WATCH utility.
From time to time it asks a username / password.
My config of WASD for this utility is the default one.
Questions :
Based upon what mapping the authorization is asked ?
Where is the username / password kept (I asked to keep them) ? I checked all files on VMS but didn't find it and my IE is rather closed by the company so I can't check if it's kept there.
What is the frequency of the password asking ?

Re: WASD WATCH & username/pwd
That's what I thought too. But I only find
[PROMISCOUS]
/cgi-bin/qdlogstats read
in it.

Re: WASD WATCH & username/pwd
The question on the frequency is : after each start of IE. Where is it kept ? Not in a cookie.
I don't understand the syntax/reason/origin of :
[PROMISCUOUS;-;-] - R+W ; - -|
Still confused.

Re: WASD WATCH & username/pwd
The application itselfs requests that authorization is done (in php "auth_user" is tested, in CGI too).

Re: WASD WATCH & username/pwd
This might well be the standard behaviour if started /promiscuous. Like the documentation states: this usually just a mode for testing.
I think the lifetime of a user-name password is about 1 minute or so.
It has NOTHING to do with mapping. HTTPD$AUTH may, or may not be involved. I think it's not (but I'm running "production" and so I cannot tell for now)
