Re: Using Nginx auth in PHP scripts

Thanks for your great help! Now I think I got it all. Well it was non-sense to put fastcgi out of the PHP location anyway... but I didn't know about the environment problem. I'll try to think about that next time something I play with Nginx configuration. Everything is OK now. --- *B. R.* On T
