I would try the following: 1) Temporarily remove the password protection on the directory you want to protect and then re-add it. Use the cPanel File Manager to help ensure that the corresponding passwd file is created. 2) Verify that the corresponding passwd file has been created. Make sure that it's there, that it has the username you expect, and that the directory it is in matches the directory in your .htaccess (/home/bankrup2/.htpasswds/public_html/subscribers/passwd). 3) If that doesn't work, try to temporarily add an index.html file in the directory you're trying to protect. This might provide a clue as to whether or not it has anything to do with the directory listing and the password protection not working together. 4) If it still doesn't work, I would suggest opening a ticket with your hosting provider. If they can't resolve it, they should at least be able to let you know why it's not possible. I hope that helps, -Michael S. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
