[phpesp-dev] damn cgi mode

[James E. F. <jf...@uv...>]

Hey guys,

Can we elimitate this stupid problem with authentication in CGI mode 
(and IIS) mode for good?  Clearly it can be detected with code, because 
I wrote code for test.php to check the SAPI and such and print bad stuff 
in red.  How about we change the admin interface to disable auth on the 
fly when it detects CGI or IIS?  It can print out a big error message 
telling the user their fly is unzipped, unless it detects Apache Basic 
Auth (REMOTE_USER is set).

Any takers on coding it up?  I know Matthew Gregg is/was trying to make 
a new release...  Let's fix this damn nuisance before the release.

Send a patch to the list, or just commit away and report back if you've 
got CVS access.
