Hi !
login with htaccess works fine, but as I have root rights: how can I establish login on a apache2 server without making use of htaccess, as the manual refers to a more elegant method, but, I guess I just don't grasp it sofar.
--Sorry, can't help you with this.
further, is it possible to give certain ip-addresses login rights, so they donnot have to make use of login procedure?
--> Yes, you need a combination of: <directory xxx> AllowOverride all Allow from some.ip Satisfy any </directory> and a .htaccess file in the directory xxx Have fun!
