I just found my "access.conf" file and in there I can see where the
authentication is being set.  I'm wondering, if the UserName and Password of
the Auth_Pgwd_field(s) can then be queried by script as ENV variables?

I'm still not sure about these cookies.  Are they stored locally on my
machine when I login to the site - because they don't appear to have been
saved locally.

Thanks a bunch guys!

Karl

If you want your page not to load at all, and before this, your browser to
prompt you for a username or password, that's the .htaccess file (or apache
conf file) looking like this:

AuthUserFile /home/username/public_html/members/.htpasswd
AuthName "members zone"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user

you need also a .htpasswd file, which is created using the htpasswd command.
See the Apache docs for more informations
