Most likely, this has nothing to do with register_globals. Check the
phpinfo() output under "Server API" or get the value returned by
php_sapi_name(). If it is anything other than "Apache" (for example,
"CGI/FastCGI"), you can't use HTTP authentication on this server. HTTP
authentication is only available when PHP is configured as an Apache
module...
