RE: [cobalt-developers] .htaccess file not listed in directory

["Malcolm Wild" <cobaltsec@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Half way down /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf (or whereever httpd.conf is
on your box! as root from / type find . | grep httpd.conf [enter] and it'll
find it for you

The .htaccess file to set to
AllowOverrides None

Change that line to
AllowOverrides All (if its just your box or check out apache.org for less
open options)
or
AllowOverride Authconfig (for just .htaccess password use)

Then restart your apache
on linux as root
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart

Job done :)

I am having real trouble securing a directory using .htaccess, can I ask a
huge favor by asking you what your conf files look like because I've tried
all different variations and nothing seems to work. I am using the latest
version of Apache. Also could you tell me what you had to put in the
.htaccess files to make things work.

Thanks in advance.
Will
