CakePHP 2.x I’m using HttpSocket digest to login - working great. Is there a method for logging out?

There is no way to logout since digest auth is stateless

Hi there, I’m trying to implement HTTP Digest Authentication, but I’m having troubles to login over the Web Service that supports Digest. I always get Unauthorized from the server. Could you publish your implementation please?

This is what i got in the client;

```
        $http = new HttpSocket();
        $http->configAuth('Digest', array(
            'user' => 'myUser',
            'pass' => '22da9adc05daf39df4d813d9ac227337',
        ));

        $q = $http->post(
                $url, json_encode($data)
        );

```

And this is what i got at appController.php in the webservice side;

```
public $components = array(
    'Session',
    'RequestHandler',
    'Security' => array(
    //'blackHoleCallback' => 'forceSSL'
    ),
    'Auth' => array(
        'authenticate' => array(
            'Digest' => array(
                'userModel' => 'User',
                'fields' => array('username' => 'username', 'password' => 'digest_hash')
            )
        ),
    //'authorize' => 'Controller'
    )
);

```

When I access the webservice url locally it prompts me for username and password and I put it and it works, it gives me access, but when I do it via HTTP it prevents me
