[cobalt-users] .htaccess files and password protecting Directories

["Brian Paulson" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

	I have been trying now for some time to password protect a dir using a
password file other then the /etc/passwd file. and no matter what I put in
my .htaccess file I can use my custom .passwd file.

Here is my . htaccess file

# Access file
order allow,deny
allow from all
require valid-user
Authname "Rotary Members Only"
Authtype Basic
AuthUserFile /home/sites/.htpasswd

Now I cant use the above mentioned .htpasswd file to log in to that dir but
I can log in using any of the users/passwds that are in the main passwd.

Is there some thing that I have to do some where to allow me to use a
separate htpasswd file???


Please Help

Thank You
