Vbtemplates Database - how ??

[imported_Vinney]

How did you intergrate the forum database via the .htaccess password protection used on the Database section please ?

i've been looking for a way for months .... please help

I'm guessing it's a script from FireFly, if I'm not mistaken..

Refrence: http://www.modwest.com/help/kb1-161.html

create a htaccess. file and add the following:-

AuthName "Your Protected Area"
AuthType Basic

# Directives specific to mod_auth_mysql
# mod_auth_mysql automatically connects to 
# host: db.modwest.com

# Auth_MySQL_Info [server] [user] [pass]
Auth_MySQL_Username MYSQL_UNAME
Auth_MySQL_Password MYSQL_PASS
Auth_MySQL_DB MYSQL_DATABASE_NAME
Auth_MySQL_Password_Table MYSQL_TABLE_NAME
Auth_MySQL_Username_Field NAME_OF_USERNAME_FIELD
Auth_MySQL_Password_Field NAME_OF_PASSWORD_FIELD
Auth_MySQL_Encrypted_Passwords Off
# turn the above to "On" if you used crypt() on users' 
# passwords before storing them
Auth_MySQL_Non_Persistent On
Auth_MYSQL On
# turn the above to "Off" if you want 
# other authentication to take over in case the visitor 
# fails mysql authentication
Auth_MySQL_Empty_Passwords Off
# turn the above to "On" if you want to allow authenticate 
# just a correct username and no password

# End mod_auth_mysql specific directives

require valid-user

+++++++++++++++++++++

Where "MYSQL_UNAME" is your own MySQL
username, "MYSQL_PASS" is your own MySQL
password, "MYSQL_DATABASE_NAME" is your own MySQL 
database name
"MYSQL_TABLE_NAME" is the name of the table in your database that contains the username and
 password fields that will be used to do the authentication
"NAME_OF_USERNAME_FIELD" is the name of the field in the specified table that stores the username 
"NAME_OF_PASSWORD_FIELD" is the name of the field in the specified table that stores the password.

THANK YOU SD!
I've been wanting that for a while now

Or, if you want to do it yourself, look up sending raw headers, specifically 401 Authorization Required.
