You shouldn't be prompted for that second password, so I suspect the
problem is there.  Once a password is entered you shouldn't have to
re-enter it until you close the browser.  So, it looks like sessions
aren't working on your Debian host.   What's the value of session_save_path
(in ?action=phpinfo)?  Is that directory writable?

I'm guessing that this is a purely internal development site of
some sort, as the above URL gives me a DNS error.  Just checking.  :-)
