[cobalt-users] Raq4 Authentication

[Tony Mealing <tony@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys (n'gals),

A little problem with a raq4i authenticating protected directories.

I've added a .htaccess file and .htpasswd file to a directory i'd like
to protect on my server, problem is the dialogue box pops up when
requesting a page from that directory but it won't authenticate and
gives me the normal rejected notice after three attempts. This happens
across all virtual sites.

Any idea's.

the .htaccess file (changed directory name for security reasons)

# Access file
order allow,deny
allow from all
require valid-user
Authname DirectoryName
AuthPAM_Enabled off 
Authtype Basic 
AuthUserFile home/sites/home/web/mydirectorynamehere/.htpasswd

The .htpasswd file is in the same directory and contains the login
username and encrypted password.
