I'm at a point where I'm try to setup the extra protecton. It is telling me that the .htaccess & .htpasswd_oscommerce needs to be writeable. It gives me the path of catalogs/admin/.htaccess and the same for passwd. When I ftp to the admin folder the 2 files are not there.

How do I get them and how do I make them writeable?

@dculley,

The two files are included in the v2.3.1 download. Upload them to your server and then active them from the admin area under adminstrators link.

Just by chance found them on my-pc. They did not upload. Uploaded and now it's working.
