Httaccess Tutorial...

Create a file in text editor and name it { .htaccess } then insert example info with your server path as stated below in examples. Check with your HOST for correct path to forums folders... Also U can use your HOST control panel to create these...

After finding correct path copy and paste in one of the examples below and then copy to .htaccess file and save.

Upload to folder U want to protect with User AuthName...

Next you will need to creat a password { .htpasswd } file.
Check below for more on .htpasswd files...


Example info below
*******************

# Begin password protection #
AuthName "Type in site info or whatever here"
Require valid-user
AuthUserFile "/home/users/web/htdocs/forums/ftp_unix/.htpasswd"
AuthType basic
# End password protection #

*******************

# Begin password protection #
AuthName "Type in name here"
Require valid-user
AuthUserFile "/home/users/web/x123/htdocs/forums/ftp_unix/.htpasswd"
AuthType basic
# End password protection #

********************

# Begin password protection #
AuthName "Type in name or whatever here"
Require valid-user
AuthUserFile "/home/users/htdocs/forums/ftp_unix/.htpasswd"
AuthType basic
# End password protection #

********************

# Begin password protection #
AuthName "Password Protected"
Require valid-user
AuthUserFile "/hsphere/local/home/siteuser_id/yoursite.org/forums/ftp_unix/.htpasswd"
AuthType basic
# End password protection #

********************


Creating a .htaccess password file is required to verify password to AuthName.

Create a text file and save it as { .htpasswd } then save and insert new password info created by password maker. Password should look like one of the examples below.

Thats it!

Example info below
*******************

siteadmin:96W2uYoO3AysI

webmaster:x23QymoKMvJ5I

admin:u6HPg4oKMvys4

sysmgr:8h7Iy3UrMv9CI


Its possible that your HOST coniguration may be somewhat different than info here. If so use your HOST's htaccess file creator.

Below are two links to help with creating passwords to AuthName .htaccess file.

I use this alot, its a nice little tool 2 help speed things up...
Lower versions of vBull may work ok...

Back up yo files before using...:eek:
These files wont write over files already there...

Good Luck;)

Awesome, thanks for this...

/me installs

Thanks, going to try it out on my test site first.

This will be very useful :) Great job

Dangerous :eek:

Can be.. I agree, but at the same time it also can be helpful.

How so?

If you're not sure about using this then please show flaws or issues...

Working fine on my side, you can always htaccess yo admincp if you be unsure...

All files verified and working ok...

Enjoy the forums;)

As long as you have to log in each time manually, then it could be okay, but if you login automatically, very dangerous if someone gets access to the admincp. think ill give it a miss tho.

Perhaps using dir password access would reduce any security threat issues?
I have to enter a dir password and then my normal login for my admincp :)

i agree with u , not bad.
