phpcode Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I'm trying to protect a folder but I cannot get it to work. Heres what is in my htaccess file: AuthUserFile C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache.htpasswd AuthGroupFile /test AuthName EnterPassword AuthType Basic require user test And htpasswd: test:4OCLqrtvRV4w2 I've restarted the server but that didn't do anything. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/85082-solved-password-protect-folder/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmax Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Since you appear to have access to the whole of the C: drive (Win32) is there a specific reason why you're trying to use .htaccess files? (they're not recommended if you have access to httpd.conf) http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/htaccess.html#when httpd.conf - example password protection ----------- <Directory c:/wwwroot/private> Order Allow,Deny Allow from All #Disable .htaccess files in this location to help prevent hacking (esp in Win32 Apache) Allowoverride None AuthUserFile C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache.htpasswd AuthGroupFile /test AuthName EnterPassword AuthType Basic Require user test #Allow from local machine(s) Allow from 127.0.0.1 Alllow from 192.168.1. #Use satisfy any or satisfy all - depends on your needs Satisfy Any </Directory> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/85082-solved-password-protect-folder/#findComment-434069 Share on other sites More sharing options...
