Hey all,

i have a few pages on my website that i need to be password-protected, and am trying to setup .htaccess in a subdirectory.

However, i don't quite understand some components of the .htaccess file, and was wondering if perhaps someone could explain how to set it up correctly:



I just need to know how to find the server path to my subdirectory.


This is all assuming, of course, that .htaccess is allowed on our sites?

Thanks for all the help!

Hmmmmm setting up the htaccess file is not that easy, it may be kind of tricky. Maybe yo should contact an admin or make a post in this thread http://www.zymic.com/forum/index.php?showt...t=0&start=0

lol i saw that, but it seemed that was more of a post concerning whether .htaccess was allowed or not, and noone ever really says if it's allowed or not.

Besides that, i didnt understand exactly what Bread was saying needed to be put in the .htaccess file.

That's why i decided to start a seperate topic.

Basically, though, if someone could just explain to me how to find what the complete path to my directories is, I could figure the rest out myself.

Thanks !

Ohh ok, but first tell me what CMS you are using. Are you trying to use vbulletin?

ummm... im not sure what a CMS is, and as far as VBulletin goes, im not trying to setup a forum atm...im simply trying to use htaccess to password lock one or two pages
