Hello, is doesn't quite matter where you put the password and group files. For security reasons you just shouldn't put them into a folder that is accessible through the web. Just make sure you reference those files correctly in your .htaccess-files, e.g.: > AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/htusers > AuthGroupFile /etc/apache2/htgroups Remember to configure Apache to consider your .htaccess files or better configure those access restrictions in the apache configuration itself.
