Setup wizard stops at Running test 21 of 41.

It seems that you are using some protection and the wizard and CKFinder code isn't able to keep that login info when the asp.net code is called to handle images.

I know that sometime ago I adjusted the code to handle basic authentication, but in your case you must be using something different. If you can explain what's the setup of the server so I can reproduce it I can try to fix the problem. Or you can send me a Personal Message with the info about the server so I can try to check it there.

If you keep the IsAuthorized session variable updated according to the login then CKFinder should be safe. You can test to modify the CheckAuthentication function and return always true: in that case the wizard should show you a warning that anyone could use CKFinder and that's certainly not safe. If in your current setup you don't see such a warning then CKFinder is protected, but I agree that the more layers of protection the better just in case something fails in unexpected ways.

I'll try to setup the environment to use windows authentication and check what can be done so CKFinder works automatically, but I don't know how long it can take me to make everything work correctly.
