Hi gang: The subject line says it all. How secure is a .htaccess file to store passwords and other sensitive stuff? Can a .htaccess file be viewed remotely?
It depends on the server configuration. I think for the most part apache servers disable viewing these files by default. But, in any event, when these include access restriction, I always point it at a user/password file outside the web tree.
