This parameter prevents <var class="product">[[Janus Web Server]]</var> from immediately sending an "Unauthorized" response to a browser after a password change.

	''Janus Web Server'' sends an "Unauthorized" response to a browser whenever the user changes his or her password either by specifying oldpassword:newpassword for the password in a logon pop-up window or with a NEWPASSF/NEWPASSF2 form. This causes a logon pop-up window to appear on the user's workstation, allowing the use to tell the browser what the new password is (there is no way for a server to tell a browser that the user has just changed his or her password).		<var class="product">Janus Web Server</var> sends an "Unauthorized" response to a browser whenever the user changes his or her password either by specifying <var class="term">oldpassword:newpassword</var> for the password in a logon pop-up window or with a NEWPASSF/NEWPASSF2 form. This causes a logon pop-up window to appear on the user's workstation, allowing the use to tell the browser what the new password is (there is no way for a server to tell a browser that the user has just changed his or her password).

	While having a logon pop-up window appear immediately after a password change might be confusing to end-users, it is probably less confusing than the same window appearing some time later. In certain cases, such as a page with multiple embedded password protected images, the end-user might even receive multiple logon pop-up windows because of a password change, if an immediate "Unauthorized" is not sent after a password change.
