Re: [cobalt-users] htpasswd authentication



Hi,

Calling your folder admin is not a too good idea. A link already exist to
www.domain.com/admin for the cobalt administration !!!!

This may cause you problem is you create a folder admin in the web
directory, which will pop up first ?

Simply call the folder a other name it may correct the problem.
