Thanks, I have tried using <Directory> but I haven't got it to prompt
for a username and password yet. I just copied the contents of .htaccess:
<Directory /var/www/mysite/stats>
AuthType Basic
AuthName 'Members Only'
AuthUserFile /var/www/mysite/.htpasswd
<limit GET PUT POST>
require valid-user
</limit>
</Directory>
Please read the regdeveloper link I posted. It'll show why Limit is
wrong too :-)
And don't put your passwords file in the document root. Even with a
block on .ht* files that's just asking for trouble.
Thanks again, I've removed the limit directive, but still can't get the
protection working.
(don't worry, the .htpasswd file isn't in the document root - I just
made a typo when removing the real directories for posting - well
spotted though!)
I am reading and re-reading the regdeveloper link trying to see what
I've missed.
Thanks.
