Hi,

I have a folder on my server which i want to protect. I though everything is setup fine and does protect the folder but also protects the public_html also even though the htaccess file is in a sub folder.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
AuthName "Restricted Area" 

AuthType Basic 

AuthUserFile /vhost/vhost6/s/d/o/.htpasswd 

AuthGroupFile /dev/null 

require valid-user

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Adam
