.htaccess - Who remembers my htaccess password? -
This is a question about the functionality of remembering the htaccess password when I enter my password by visiting an htaccess protected website , So long as I can not change my IP address I can go to the site without entering the password. I had first thought that my browser would save passwords, but this is not the case as the browser should not pay attention to changing IP, right? The only option left will be that the webserver saves my IP address. But whoever receives my IP address will be able to access the site without entering that password, which will not be saved.
Do you know what my HTAC password is?
is known as the authentication method.
As you can read from the article, send the credentials to every request with the browser, so there is no session or similar on the server side.
The browser will 'remember' for a while (browser is different from browser) I think it is either a coincidence that whenever you change your IP, or your browser connection loss Detects and clears all cached credentials.
tl; Dr: Browser
