Password Protecting A Directory...

I need to password protect a directory on my server cant get it working using .htaccess is there any other way can do it?

Thanks

 

Go to your cpanel, click on the icon that says "password protect directories".
ONce inside, just find the directory you want to protect.

 

I dont use cpanel on my server cant afford it

 

Try adding an index.php or index.htm to the directory that asks for a password.

 

You can protect access to services using php auth
but, you will not protect files in directory, so the only way is .htaccess, or
php + file wrapper + mod_rewrite - the last is hard solution
What hosting do you use? you can create .htaccess and passwd file yourself

 

Simplest way to do it using javascript. Highly vulnerable though.

 

Sure it's not a protection, it's protection from kids... thoght not from smart kids
