Fire up wireshark or similar and check the response code your server
provides when it gets these requests. In both cases it should send a
401 unauthorized response with a WWW-Authenticate header specifying
the authentication realm. If it does not then your server is broken.
If it does send those even when the second request from QNAM with the
invalid Authorization header (the header for basic authentication) is
received then it's likely to be QNAM that is broken.
