Jan0815 Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 Password protection for http-servers is highly implementation-dependant. You will have to read the manual of your webserver program to find out how to do it. Most of us tend to use Apache so you will often hear something about .htaccess files - the apache method of doing this. IIS will use some clicker-di-click-multiple-funny-dialogboxes approach (I dunno, never used IIS) and omni-httpd is something I never touched :-) My advice: start using apache ;-) Quote You can't have everything.

dreamscape Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 IIS?

I thought such a giant company as M$ would be able to produce a 1000+ pages manual. ;-) Result: Use apache :-)) Quote You can't have everything.
