I have a Linux Apache server where the root of the docs directory is
password protected with Basic Authentication. The server is behind a
router that only forwards to the 443 port. My question is, would the
user name and password still be sent unencrypted in this manner? When I
request /index.html I get the generic encryption warnings, I accept the
certificate for the current session, and I am then prompted for a user
name and password. Is the connection encrypted the moment I accept the
certificate?
