Thanks, Adam. To test even "Basic" authentication, I created a file named "passwords" in the htdocs directory to confirm that Apache could reach it. :-)
Then I made this entry in the httpd.conf file: <Directory /download> AuthType Basic AuthName "Private" AuthUserFile /var/www/htdocs/passwords Require user stephanie </Directory> Unfortunately, all I get is an "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" error message. I don't get any dialog box to sign in. I'm stumped. Suggestions? Ed
