Hello,
I'm trying to protect a dir using the mod_auth_db authentication
method with the latest apache-1.3. The actual dir contains the data logs
from webalizer ( that's got its own index.html file). Here's what I've
done (from http://httpd.apache.org/docs/howto/auth.html#authdbconfig):
Created the user file and test user
Created the .htaccess file and placed it in the dir under the
DocumentRoot dir
However, I find that I can simply type the full path to the "protected
dir's index.html file, and it still loads without prompting me for a
password.
From the above apache doc page, I couldn't have thought that this could
be any easier, but have I missed something here? Where have I gone wrong
over the few lines of instructions? Someone please help me.
Thanks
Stacey
