from my httpd.config:
DocumentRoot "/home/httpd/html"
<VirtualHost intranet>
ServerName intranet
DocumentRoot /home/httpd/html/intranet
.......
I have just set up a test dir as below:
/home/httpd/html/intranet/DOCS/protected
with the .htaccess file under this as follows:
cat .htaccess
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/conf/htpasswdfile
AuthName "special directory"
require valid-user
#require user tamm
#require user paul
======================
I have also tried this with "require user tamm "
I have created the user names/pw also but can't see
this as the problem as I am not being asked for
authentication yet.
