I should have included the .htaccess sample that generates the error: AuthType Basic AuthName "Admin" AuthBasicProvider dbm AuthDBMType GDBM AuthDBMUserFile "/home/httpd/notintree/password" Require valid-user Maybe I'm just being daft - if so I need a steer Regards Paul > All passwords, groups etc are in a GDBM file. one of the main changes between 2.0 and 2.2 is in area of authentication and authorization. It has been sustantailly refactored with many changes to module names and directive syntax. Start at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/new_features_2_2.html#module and read carefully...
