Authcookie based permissions ignored after upgrade to apache 2.2.6
The following used to work, but I can't get it to work after the upgrade
Alias /files/ "/local/www/files/" <Directory "/aha/system/www/files"> AuthType MYAUTH::AuthCookieHandler AuthName MYAUTH PerlAuthenHandler MYAUTH::AuthCookieHandler->authenticate PerlAuthzHandler MYAUTH::AuthCookieHandler->authorize require valid-user </Directory>

If I change things to

<Directory "/aha/system/www/images"> Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>

I can get access, so I know where I'm putting things should work. As far as I can tell by adding lots of debugging options, the MYAUTH stuff is never called. The MYAUTH stuff does work for the document root, but not other directories. Any suggestions?
