Hi,
We need to password protect a directory on our webserver. I changed
httpd.conf to AllowOverride AuthConfig, created a password file
(users) in /etc/httpd/conf/ created a user name and password,
verified the permissions to be 644 on the users file, and put
a .htaccess file containing the following in the directory that I
want to protect. I stopped and started Apache, but the server still
displays pages from that directory without asking for a user name and
password.
Here is the content of the .htacces file:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/users
Require valid-user
Any suggestons on how to make this work are appreciated.
Thanks,
Gary
