Guest Posted November 11, 2002 Posted November 11, 2002 Thanks for the listing. Yes I had already added password protection to the admin folder. Once again thanks to both of you.
Guest Posted November 12, 2002 Posted November 12, 2002 add an .htaccess file to the admin dir immediately if live server :) what does that file (.htaccess) do? can some one tell me? where do i get the file and add it in?
Guest Posted November 12, 2002 Posted November 12, 2002 The .htaccess essentially allows you to password protect files & folders. You create the .htaccess file in the directory you want to protect and then allocate a password file using the .htpasswd command.
