What is the problem you are having with rclone?
Using web-ui with htpasswd requires to login twice. First it asks via a web browser window ('This site is asking you to sign in'). I tested it via chrome and firefox. If I cancle this window I get a 401 Unauthorized. If I enter the correct credentials I will be redirected to the rclone web ui frontend where I should login again. So overall htpasswd is working but it asks twice for the credentials. Would be nice that I can go directly to the web ui frontend to login and don't get the browser login window beforehand. I also tried to add --rc-no-auth together with the --rc-htpasswd option, hoping that it doesn't ask for the first one, but it still asks twice.
If I visit the same page later again after entering the credentials twice in the first place, then I don't get asked for the first (web browser) login.
Is there any switch or possibility so turn off the first password request?
