It has been our observation that most browsers handle multiple
realms in the same server poorly; once they have established a set
of credentials for a given server, they will always send that set
until it fails. If the failure presents a new realm, most browsers
forget the credentials for the first realm. To check your favorite
browsers, see:
http://digest-test.agranat.com/test_list.html
and follow the link to "Authentication in multiple realms".
Look forward to this in the interoperability events...
