simple authorization fails

Using a self compiled (pre) KDE 4.3 I have difficulties with Konqueror and a site which request authorization (by sending http-error 401).

In this case the browser opens a (local) dialog to enter username and password, does some calculation and returns a "special" http response. If this accepted by the server it sends the requested page.

This fails with the recent Konqueror, while Konqueror in KDE 3.5.9 is working.

Beside this, there seems to be no "strategy" for do a fallback if authorization went wrong. No relaod of the page the request startet from, no pop-up "authorization failed" etc.

It's the same case for Arora and rekonq browsers too. So IMHO it seems to be a Qt-related problem.

If you want, I can do some wireshark on this...

TIA!

Bernhard

Probably related to NTLM authentication since that is the only authentication that did not work. If not the case, feel free to reopen the bug report...
