Adam,

First up, this happened a long time ago. It's just taken till now to find
why it broke (cause i have free time, i'm testing 0.16.9.8118 and found the
error again)

The problem lies in line 200 of html/includes/authenticate.inc.php
(v0.16.9.8118)
 if (!$_SESSION['authenticated'] && (authenticate($_SESSION['username'],
$auth_password) ||                       // login/password

in older versions, "$auth_password" was "$_SESSION['password']".

by replacing "$auth_password" with "$_SESSION['password']"., AuthBasicFake
works again.


I can't see where "$auth_password" is initialized but it's not my code so
i'll not assume too much more than that.



thanks
