Hi,
I'm trying to password protect one of my web accessable
directories and I can't get .htaccess to work in a Centos 5.1 box
Here's what I did
I created an .htaccess file with the contents:
AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/mysite/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user
and I uploaded it to the dir I want to protect. Then I created my password
outside of my web dir with the command: htpasswd -c .htpasswd pam
then followed password prompts, created my password.
So then I go to the site, and am not seeing any password required box,
I can see site without a login.
So then I figured it's not turned on in apache, and went to httpd.conf and changed
AllowOverride None to AllowOverride AuthConfig
When I reload, apache will not reload.
What am I doing wrong?
