ultrus Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Hello, Today, I successfully got WAMP (windows apache, mysql, php) working on a server for the first time! The only issue I have left now, is my .htaccess files doing absulutely nothing to password protect directories. I guess this would be a bit off the php topic and on the apache side - I think. Anyone else run into this issue before? Visitors can just pass my files as if nothing was there. Here is an example of an .htaccess file's contents to simply block everyone - not working. deny from all Any ideas? Thank you much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john010117 Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 The first thing you should do is to see if your host/server actually supports/allows the use of .htaccess files. I found this off of Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultrus Posted May 8, 2007 Author Share Posted May 8, 2007 yep. I installed everything myself on a dedicated server from scratch and set the rules. I'm still researching this issue. I'll post if I figure anything out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
