It would seem that with my particular installation, things are being 
cached which should not be.  I just moved my whole horde installation 
away and replaced it with a clean one.  Using the .dist configuration 
files, My user name and password is authenticated, I am able to view my 
email, and use the addressbook.  All of this without setting up the 
authentication at all, or having Imp or Turba installed.

Is this a problem with the Apache instalation I'm using?

Thanks, is this in octal like the unix umask command, so what I want is 022?
