[ale] Ethereal

[terry at bitlinx.com (Terry Bailey)]

Hi,

I am using Ethereal to sniff the network card on my PC.  When I 
access a page on a server that requires authorization (i.e., 
username/password that is triggered by </Directory/> in httpd.conf) 
the username nor password shows up in the Ethereal output.  I even 
tried using the encrypted form of the password.

Why is this true?

Thanks,

Terry Bailey
