Is your 'Authname' directive the same for the other location where you'd 
like to share credentials?  Normally browsers automatically re-send 
their basic authentication credentials to any request where the host and 
AuthName match.  If the AuthName is different or you end up redirecting 
to a different hostname (even to the same machine) you'll have to re-enter.
