Issues with digest authentication - need some help

Hi all !

I'm rather mew to cake and trying to create a set of REST services with the need for DIGEST auth.

configuration :

- I'm using cake 2.2.3 

- in AppController I've got this setup :

public $components = array(

    'RequestHandler',

    'Session',

    'Auth' => array(

        'authenticate' => array(

            'Digest' => array(

                'userModel' => 'User',

                'realm' => 'somerealm',

                'fields' => array ('password' => 'digest_hash')

            )

        ),

        'authorize' => array('Controller')

    )

beforeFilter functions are not defined in Users/App controller

in UsersController I'v added a 'whoami' function to show currently logged on user name

Using curl --digest --user  "user:pass" "http://127.0.0.1/cake/Users/whoami" 

problem is : I can never get the user to login ! 

hashes and all are fine, same user can login user forms auth. if I allow it.

curl gets 302 redirect to /Users/login

The only time I can get 'whoami' to work is if I Auth->allow it in beforeFilter but then I naturally don't have the user logged in.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks, Nir.
