I am really new to SSL. It is starting to make sense to me, but I would like to try and clarify a couple things I am not sure on. I have the default configuration working fine. The https is setup as a virtual host, right? And I can tell it which directory to use for this virtual host. My main concern now is how do I setup basic authentication in a virtual host. When I try and add the AuthType Basic to the virtual host, apache errors when starting. Do I have to create a <Directory> entry in my httpd.conf file for the same directory that I want to protect. I obviously know nothing about SSL or virtual hosts, I have a lot of reading to do. My other question is, will mod_ssl encrypt my passwords? If I setup a virtual host with the directory /usr/local/apache/wwwroot/it and do authentication at that level, can I then do further authentication at the /usr/local/apache/wwwroot/it/routers? I want to set up series of directories that give access to some people and not others. So will SSL encrypt every file and subdirectory under the first directory that is set. I just want to make sure I am not sending out unencrypted passwords. Thanks, Keith Vance West Coast Administrator/Network Analyst (206) 215-9844 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
