Hi,We need to password protect a directory on our webserver. I changed httpd.conf to AllowOverride AuthConfig, created a password file (users) in /etc/httpd/conf/ created a user name and password, verified the permissions to be 644 on the users file, and put a .htaccess file containing the following in the directory that I want to protect. I stopped and started Apache, but the server still displays pages from that directory without asking for a user name and password.
Here is the content of the .htacces file: AuthType Basic AuthName "Restricted Files" AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/users Require valid-user Any suggestons on how to make this work are appreciated. Thanks, Gary ______________________________ Gary Girolimon, M.Ed.
