Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; N; Linux 2.2.10 i686; en-US) Mozilla/m14 BuildID: m14 crypto if on a https site the user name/password will not get execpted it will keep asking for user name and password Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.go to a site with an https server 2.go to an athetication page the requires a user name and password 3.type in user name and password it will not be execpted Actual Results: the password box keeps comeing back Expected Results: it should let you in
I don't think this is a crypto issue. Bug 27295 prevented basic http auth from working on M14. This has since been fixed. You could try a new build (although I'm not sure how well SSL works in nightly builds). You could also try to go to a non-secure authenticated site, e.g., go to http://mozilla.diaryland.com/ and log in as "test" with password "mozilla". If that also doesn't work, it's just that old bug.
garyl@akos.net wirties in email: I have tried it on a non-secure authenticated site. It works fine. it also works fine on a regular secure site just not on a secure authenticated site. I have no way of reproducing this. Change to NEW, cc gagan.

if you need someplace to test it I set up a url for it. https://netverifier.com/testdir/ username= testdir password = tester1
Marking fixed. I can log into etrade and schwab. I cannot log into the URL below even with Nav 4.7, so I am not using this as a testcase. https://netverifier.com/testdir/ username= testdir password = tester1
