Hi,

Here's a simple solution:

Create the .htpasswd file in the directory where you want access only to
authorized users:

.htpasswd:
        AuthName "Restricted Area"
        AuthType Basic
        AuthUserFile /etc/apache/passwd
        
        require valid-user

The apache package has a utility called 'htpasswd' -- this is what you'll
use to make username:password sets and write it to /etc/apache/passwd:

        htpasswd -c /etc/apache/passwd username

I hope this helps.

I want ideas and tips on how to setup .htaccess /htpassword to work with
our system passwords so that a certain user can get into a secured page
and once logged-in to the intranet (we are using OCS) at same the user
gets authenticated and can view it.
Thanks in advance!
