How to use auth_basic with bottle?

[Team AIGD]

I am running a bottle-based server application, for which I want to protect some of the routes with basic authentication. Thus I added the bottle.auth_basic decorator like this:

def auth_check(username, password):
    return username == USERNAME and password == PASSWORD

def setRoutes():
    self.route('/admin', 'GET', route_admin)

@bottle.auth_basic(auth_check)
def route_admin():
    print "Admin called."

So when I start the server and connect to it on the same machine (localhost), then its working fine. As soon as I try to access the /admin page I see the proper authentication dialog and I can only access that page when I enter the correct authentication credentials.

However, it does not work when I try to connect to that page from a remote machine. In that case I do not even see the auth. dialog, instead I directly get a 401 page from bottle.

The IP addresses etc. are exactly the same in both cases. In the second case I simply connect from a remote machine instead of the same machine.

Any ideas what I could be missing here?

PS: I am running bottle version 0.11.6
