I think your problem is with AuthUserFile. From the apache docs: The AuthUserFile directive sets the name of a textual file containing the list of users and passwords for user authentication. Filename is the path to the user file. If it is not absolute (i.e., if it doesn't begin with a slash), it is treated as relative to the ServerRoot. Thus /thefold/.htpasswd is looking for /thefold/.htpasswd, not /home/httpd/html/thefold/.htpasswd, which is probably what you mean? maybe? HTH --Geoff BTW, in way of introductions, I've been following the list for a while but haven't made it out to a meeting yet - hopefully, there will be a first time one of these days ;) Anywaym, howdy. > -----Original Message----- > From: Nicolai Rosen [SMTP:laktar@hotmail.com] > Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 1999 12:31 AM > To: plug@lists.nothinbut.net > Subject: [Plug] Restricting Web Access > > I'm trying to restrict access to a directory > http://laktar.dyndns.org/thefold/ on my computer.
