I am trying to enable Basic Authentication on a directory. The .htaccess file reads: AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /usr/home/roguetr/public_html/etc/htpasswd.users AuthName "Sammy.quicksilver.net.nz" require valid-user The htpasswd.users file was created using htpasswd. These files are replicas (except for the specified file locations) of a setup that works. In these circumstances however, nothing seems to happen. Apache is 1.3.11 with php4 compiled in. I have seen at least 3 types of auth mod in the conf file. Everything else seems to work fine so I'm assuming it has something to do with the way I'm trying to enable it rather than a problem with the server. Could any replies please be CCed to this address. Thanks for any help. This mailing list is a life saver. Sarton O'Brien To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
