hummmm, not too sure but try putting a .htaccess file without any auth stuff in there in the payments directory

What a load of tosh!  Give me a real operating system and a real web server
and I would have had this done 5 minutes after the client asked me to sort
this problem out, but no its on linux on apache, so its taken me all morning
and I still haven't got it working!

So anyway enough of a rant on that particular issue.  Can anyone tell me how
I can get apache to allow access to one directory under a directory that is
password protected by a .htaccess file.

I have a directory called "payments" under the root of a site at
"/var/www/html/".  The site is protected by a username and password until
such time as the client releases it from testing, but they want to be able
to direct users to a page under the payments directory from another site
now.

What I have in httpd.conf is this :
<Directory "/">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
</Directory>

<Directory "/var/www/html">
Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Allow from all
Order Deny,Allow
</Directory>

<Directory "/var/www/html/payment">
Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Allow from all
Order Allow,Deny
</Directory>

I have a .htaccess file in "/var/www/html" and none in the payments
directory.  The user name and password is working great, but I cannot work
out how to stop it working on the payments directory.

Any thoughts anyone?

Regards

Stephen
