RE: [cobalt-developers] .htaccess (Domain Name and Ip Address Access)

["Will W" <will911@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
   I had similar issues and here is what I did:

In httpd.conf make sure you have this

AccessFileName .htaccess
AllowOverride AuthConfig

Then put a .htaccess file in the directory that you want to restrict access to with something like this:

AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/conf/password.txt
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName MembersOnly 
AuthType Basic

require valid-user

and then make sure that you create the password.txt in the appropriate location as specified in you .htaccess file using the htpasswd command. Do a man on htpasswd for more info.

Good luck...and hope this helps.
Will
