> I wrote client code to login to a rest service with security-constraint. The client code must use an HTTP header of Authorization: Basic [Base 64 username:password]. If 'Basic' is sent as uppercase 'BASIC' it didn't work, but if sent as 'Basic' then it did work. I don't think the HTTP header fields should be case sensitive.
