<![CDATA[Change the login promt to show more than a "."?]]>Hello folks!

How do I change the login promt to show more than "."?

In IE 8 it tells me: The Server 10.0.0.1 at . requires a username and password.
In FF 4 it tells me: User and password is requested from http://10.0.0.1. Place tells ".".

The FF 4 is a raw translate because I´m from Sweden ^^, so I didn´t catch the correct message from pfSense.

Under my general setup:
Hostname: Here I have typed in a name I want to use.
Domain: Here I have typed in a domain I owned and that I´m using to access my box.

Cheers
Kirill

        header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\".\"");

Though of course that won't survive a firmware update. On 2.0 the auth system is completely different so this isn't relevant there.
