Re: OT Password protection of RR server?
Mark, I finally got my password for cPanel from Heather and I plunged into password protecting a web page. Or so I thought. I assumed that a web address was a directory and I thought I was protecting a web page but turned out locking up much more. There is still one folder jamesphurley.com/District3 that I am locked out of. Is there a way in cPanel to unprotect a page? (It would be helpful to include this kind of info in the help link. Not any time soon, I afraid. I suspect that RR is bitten off more than they are able to chew at the moment. Witness the downtime on Rev OnLine User Samples.) Also, the page I use for my neighborhood association is lvrmna.on-rev.comAt one point everyone in the neighborhood was locked out of that site due to a password protection I didn't realize I was making. Very embarrassing. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. I recall in the beginning that my deal with RR was a web presence with the url jamesphurley.on-rev.com (I own a domain name jamesphurley.com) which they were able to shorten for me to jamesphurley.com. Is this just an alias for jamesphurley.on-rev.com? Is it possible through cPanel to shorten lvrmna.on-rev.com to simply lvrmna.com? I hate this stuff. I have no idea what's going on under the hood. Thanks, Jim Hurley Mark, Thank you going into the details. They will be helpful when Heather returns information about my user name and password.. It has been months since I have used cPanel. Wish me luck.

Hi Jim, The easy way to unprotect a page is to log in with FTP and remove the httpaccess file from the directory. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Become our partner in sales http://qery.us/1bq Start selling Color Converter today. 20% commission!

Re: OT Password protection of RR server?
Mark, Thanks Mark. I did as you suggested without results. I am trying to unprotect the url: jamesphurley.com/District3 but I still get this message: To view this page, you must log in to area “District3” on jamesphurley.com:80. I have no idea what the :80 suffix means. District3 is a folder in my directory.

Re: OT Password protection of RR server?
:80 just indicates that its the default http port. On Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 12:11 PM, Jim Hurley jhurley0...@sbcglobal.netwrote: Mark, Thanks Mark. I did as you suggested without results.
