Hi - perhaps something I have missed in the config/setup of OSC - I can access my admin controlpanel for OSC without being challenged for a login. I assume that this is not supposed to happen? I can't find setting anywhere to set a login requirement.

Usually you use .htaccess for protecting the admin panel. Make a quick search on the forums and you'll get the needed information.

Hi - Thanks for that, I was expecting something built into OSC!!

I can understand it. When I started with OSC I thought the same. But why should the wheel be invented twice, if a proven and secure solution is already there?

The reason is the host controls access to the folders and files and not osc. It's not a coding matter.
