main phpwiki website

Hi, I have recently installed phpwiki and am having some trouble with httpauth.
Unfortunately my first line of inquiry, the documentation on the website, is
not available to me.  For several weeks I have received no response from the
webserver for URLs such as

  http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/phpwiki

I've tried a few different browsers from various locations on the internet, so
I don't think this is my problem.  Are others having the same problem?  It's
kind of important because all the search engines are returning links to such
URLs.

With that out of the way, I'll explain my trouble with HttpAuth in the hope
that someone can enlighten me.  I'm using PhPWiki 1.3.14, and have Apache
configured to require a password with .htaccess and .htpasswd files.  I
successfully authenticate to Apache, but PhPWiki does not consider me
authenticated, and asks me to login when I try to upload a file for example.
One unusual thing about this hosting environment, which is a possible cause, is
that /tmp is not writeable, so I have to configure any temp file locations
manually.

Here are the configuration parameters from the user auth section of my
config/config.ini:

ALLOW_ANON_USER = true
ALLOW_ANON_EDIT = true
ALLOW_BOGO_LOGIN = false
ALLOW_USER_PASSWORDS = false

USER_AUTH_ORDER = "HttpAuth"

PASSWORD_LENGTH_MINIMUM = 6

USER_AUTH_POLICY = strict

;ENABLE_USER_NEW = false
;ENABLE_PAGEPERM = false

Finally, for the record, the reason I have chosen http auth is because it is
the only mechanism that protects uploaded attachments.  When using the other
authentication methods attachments may be downloaded without authentication.
Would you like me to report this as a bug?

Thanks, Alex
