Authentication, Authorization and Access Control

    I have my control set up below:

    AuthType Basic
    AuthName
    AuthUserFile
    Require valid-user

    Does this mean anyone can access the folder? How can I set it up so only a single member can access it?

    Maybe someone can help you if you tell us where you did this 'set up'.

    It's in a folder that is meant to not be viewable by everyone. I am not sure what you mean by 'where'. It was created in Notepad?

    So you are talking about set permissions to folders and files in a filesystem on a webserver (apache), right? You seem to use a control panel instead of set the permission directly or using php's chmod aso, right? What's the name of this control panel? Or is it some Microsoft (IIS) stuff? That was about the 'where'.

    I have a custom control panel setup instead of permissions directly. My permissions are all checked. The name of the control panel folder is moderate. Basically this folder/control panel controls access to my folders/files/directories and sets it up to create, add or remove stuff.
