Description

How does this work? I don't even get prompted, I just get an immediate

{"error":"unauthorized","reason":"Authentication required."}

. And apparently browser don't allow to pass username:password@host in the URL anymore...

So, is it even possible to use Fauxton with this setting enabled?
