You are a legend. Got it working with that! Thank you so much, saved me a bigger headache!
p.s. Still, looking at the man page that really is not obvious where it mentions [realm] and [htpasswd]. I read it totally differently, that the htpasswd is a location to a file and not just a declaration to look for a file in the current dir named htpasswd etc. I wonder where did "Secure Area" came from too, 'realm' is mentioned but I had not a clue what it even was. I still don't. I cannot stand the man page for httpd.conf - so much frustration for me. > -------- Original Message -------- > > You may find this helpful: > https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-arm&m=149507490119056&w=2 > > On 9/16/17, tec...@protonmail.com <tec...@protonmail.com> wrote: >> Hello, >> >> Can someone with knowledge of OpenBSD"s HTTPD please tell me how to properly >> set up a password protected directory and where you found ALL of the >> information to do so.
