Hi, I have this awstats in: http://www.telbit.pt/awstats/awstats.pl?config=www.telbit.pt I want to protect it with a login and password. awstats.pl is located outside Apache's DocumentRoot in /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin I put there a .htaccess file with the following contents: "AuthUserFile /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/.htpasswd AuthName "stats" AuthType Basic require valid-user" but it doesn't work, the page is unprotected. Also i've tried to put put the .htaccess file in /usr/local/awstats/ but no good either. Any help would be appreciated. Warm Regards -- :wq!
