Basic Authenticate is not connected with the system
accounts and passwd(/etc/passwd)

well i read teh documentation given by apache
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/howto/auth.html

i gives me the pop up window for entering login and
passwd and then i get this erros message

This server could not verify that you are authorized
to access the document requested. Either you supplied
the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your
browser doesn't understand how to supply the
credentials required.

Subject: [Ilugc] In Plant Training Required
Message-ID: <200404151027.PAA20170@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hello All.

I would like to know if any body on the list could help me out in undertaking
my In Plant Training at Bangalore, Chennai, or New Delhi.

I am going to complete my B. Tech. VI Semester Exams on the 4th of May, 2004 &
would be free for the months of Mya-June. I will mail my resume later and have
not attached it here as it would waste valuable space and most probably it
would get filtered of as an attachment.

Any help is deeply appreciated.

3 cheers for OSS.
