Guest Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 In trying to secure my admin area, something has gone a bit wrong. It's secured, however no matter what password I put in, I can't get to it. I've been working on this for over an hour, searching the forums, all to no avail. httpd.conf: <Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/domain.com/admin/"> AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch <limit GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND> Order allow,deny Allow from all </limit> <limitexcept GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND> Order deny,allow Deny from all </limitexcept> </Directory> .htaccess AuthType basic AuthName "Restricted" AuthUserFile F:/SECURE/.htpasswd AuthGroupFile F:/SECURE/.htgroup <Limit GET> Require group admin </Limit> .htpasswd user: password .htgroup admin: user What's the problem? :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgt Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 At a quick glance it looks okay to me, but I'm not interested in looking up apache syntax to double check.

Guest Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Thanks for the response. I'm still at a total loss over here, though :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 why the password is non-encrypted? Did you create the password file using your host's cpanel or you made it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLastWord Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 No idea, my server is a local machine, never worked with a remote host. Just a little off topic. I might decide to run a server for my website. You have any good information to get started. Like computer/OS/software/ hard to set up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Our machine is an older box, dual P3 1GHz, 1 GB RAM, RAID Drives, Windows 2000 Server; nothing great by today's standards. Running Apache2, MailEnable, PHP4, MySQL5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
