htaccess/htpasswd protected directories on TextDrive

Thursday October 6, 2005

From justin french in the forums:

1. login to webmin (yourdomain:10000)
2. go to “Protected Web Directories” under “other”
3. click “Add Protected Directory”
4. use the (...) button to find the directory you want to protect (like /shortstat/)
5. enter the Realm (eg “stats”)
6. leave everything else as is

Then it will present you with a new screen showing your protected directories

1. Click “add new user for this directory”
2. enter a username and password

Took me a minute to find this one, filed for future reference.
