hello folks,
i have a question to ask...

how do you password protect a directory on a unix webserver?
i tried that HTacess thing but it didnt  work out for  me
i must have done  somthin wrong ...
instead of  asking me for a username and password.. it gave a 403 error  saying "i was not authorized"

anways  is there a javascript VBS or  ASP solution i could use?

[bash]

I think you schould try .htaccess again, it's the easyest way.
Check out http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/howto/auth.html

DO NOT use scripts for access control. It's either client-side and insecure or server-side and grossly inefficient.

The server provides you with security control features for a reason.
