tsNet and Digest Authentication - some problems or better said: missing knowledge

Tue Mar 13 09:20:37 EDT 2018

Hi Charles,

yes, you are right. For testing i am using the same URL request. But this shouldn´t matter.

I´ve tried LC 9DP11 and LC 8.1.9 Business which both have tsNet 1.3.4 included.

I ´ve filed a bug now.
