[cobalt-developers] htpasswd

["David Tran" <dtran@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am new to Linux, and we ordered a Raq two months ago.  I
was perusing through the knowledgebase trying to figure out
a way to password protect my intranet directory.

Little did I know all I had to do was a chmod.

Anyways, this is what I did:
I typed in
/usr/sbin/htpasswd -c /home/sites/homes/web/intranet
following the instructions on the "kb." but i didn't create
a htpass file.  now my root directory is always password
protected.  Can someone please help me get rid of this
problem? below is an example of what I did.

Thank you so much,
Dave


[admin@cobalt1 intranet]$ /usr/sbin/htpasswd -c
/home/sites/homes/web/intranet
Usage: htpasswd [-cm] passwordfile username
The -c flag creates a new file.
The -m flag forces MD5 encryption of the password.
On Windows systems the -m flag is used by default.
[admin@cobalt1 intranet]$
