1.11. 1.6.x Branch¶
1.11.1. Upgrade Notes¶
The Proxy Authentication handler was renamed to
proxy_authentication_handler
to follow the *_authentication_handler
form
of all other handlers. The old proxy_authentification_handler
name is marked
as deprecated and will be removed in future releases. It’s strongly recommended
to update httpd/authentication_handlers
option with new value
in case if you had used such handler.
