Jack_mcs Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 The typical way is to use an .htaccess file. Your hosts control panel may have a way to do this for you. Otherwise you will need to generate the files yourself. Do a seach of the forums for htacess to find many explanations of how to do this.

You can use this to amend admin PW if you forget it. If you used Fantastico or similar OSC installer you may have missed the step " Protect Admin" Good luck
