What are you trying to do with your .htaccess file?
a hyphen in the domain doesn't matter in the least.

Maybe paste the contents of your .htaccess file here?

Why you making a password htaccess for your index for?

[CQ2]

even leaving off the index still is showing me a error 500 code

You do no you are making htaccess files for htpasswd files is this what you want to do? or are you wanting to make a htaccess file for site urls

if you are making it for htpasswd then you only add them to the admincp folder, modcp folder, includes folder, packages folder, and vb folder

If you need help can do it for you
