I perhaps hadn't made clear what it was that I'm after: /cgi-bin - open without password protection /cgi-bin/admin - password protected; only user "Swifty" /cgi-bin/anyotherdir - password protected; any user This seems to require at least one wildcard so that the subdirectories are protected without the cgi-bin directory being protected.
