Re: [cobalt-users] HTACCESS



To start:
    /home/sites/home/cgi-bin/pw/.htpasswd
    /home/sites/home/cgi-bin/.htpasswd

they differ so make up your mind.

Then you can check in the archive for other many threads about the content
of .htaccess

If your lazy try this:

order allow,deny
allow from all
AuthPAM_Enabled off
Authtype Basic
AuthUserFile  /home/sites/home/cgi-bin/.htpasswd
Authname Secured_Zone
<Files ".ht*">
 deny from all
</Files>
<Limit GET POST>
   require valid-user
</Limit>

have fun

Here's a good one that I can't figure out:

I have :
/home/sites/home/cgi-bin/pw/

I want to password protect this directory.
I have:
.htaccess:

require valid-user
AuthName EnterPW
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/sites/home/cgi-bin/pw/.htpasswd


I then did usr/sbin/htpasswd -c /home/sites/home/cgi-bin/.htpasswd username

However, when the password box comes up. It doesn't work.
Any ideas why?

Thanks
