How Do I Change Name Of Admin Folder?

[Funky Donkey]

I am having problems protecting access to my admin folder. the server control panel is no use as it only allows me to manage directory protection via frontpage extension manager.

 

I have also tried .htaccess files with no luck. So the only way I can seem to create a proteted directory is in frontpage extension manager by creating a subweb. I can not create 1 called admin however as that is the subweb for the server admin control. So my plan is to create a proteted subweb with a folder name such as shopadmin and transfere the files from my oscommerce admin folder into it. I then need to change some file paths in order for it to work, but which files do I need to change? Also can anyone see any other problems that I may encounter.

 

Thanks In Advance :)

See this post if you want to try again to get it to work by .htaccess, far less hassle than what you propose - you're on an apache server right?

I can't help you with the frontpage question i'm afraid
