PHP auth with Safemode off

I'm new with PHP so please bare with me....

I have problems uploading files, - found out it was due to safe mode
enabled.
I have it disabled by my server admin and it works.....
Now - since he disables safe mode, my auth does not work. I'm using the
basic auth, reading the username and password from a txt file.
It no longer pops up the IE auth window - it goes straight to "invalid
username or password" as if you clicked cancel or used invalid username or
password 3ce
Any ideas?

create a test php file like this:

<?php
print_r($_SERVER);
?>

Check output for your user credentials, reference that for your Apache
Basic Auth data

I doubt he only messed with safe mode. Apaches auth has nothing to do
with PHP's Safe Mode. There must be a change in apaches configuration files.
