CGI-BIN security

Hello List, I tried to secure my cgi-bin directory with .htaccess but got internal server errors when tried to access it. set apache to AllowOveride All on the cgi-bin directory although I had no problems when setting .htaccess with ~user directories. I'm on a SuSE 7.1 running 2.4.7 kernel with httpd ver Apache/1.3.19 (SuSE/Linux) Is there any other way to work around this or another means of securing my CGI-BIN with password security when accessing it with a web browser? thanks. -- dc __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
