What exactly do you think those links are meant to tell me?

  1. The grep references digest, but tells me nothing I do not already know.
  2. The second is a test script testing authentication...

    But, as I pointed out above, it hardcodes the realm rather than deriving it from the 401 header.

    No help there then.

  3. The third is a test script checking an MD5 content header?

I don't know who you are (though I could probably take a good guess), but quite what you thought the point of your contribution was, I cannot fathom from your terse response.

Perhaps that's why your post was so terse; you didn't know what you were trying to say?

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
"Too many [] have been sedated by an oppressive environment of political correctness and risk aversion."
