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.
