-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bah! For the life of me, I can not get .htpasswd/.htaccess to work on my SuSE7.2 ( Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) (SuSE/Linux) mod_layout/1.0 mod_throttle/3.0 mod_fastcgi/2.2.2 mod_ssl/2.8.3 OpenSSL/0.9.6a mod_perl/1.25 mod_dtcl PHP/4.0.5 ). I have everything (that I know to set up, anyway) set up as: ########################################################### me@me:~/public_html - -rw-r--r-- 1 me me 209 Sep 27 21:27 .htaccess - -rw-r--r-- 1 me me 13 Sep 27 21:28 /home/me/.htgroup - -rw-r--r-- 1 me me 20 Sep 27 21:32 /home/me/.htpasswd /home/me/public_html/.htaccess: AuthName "Restricted" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /home/me/.htpasswd AuthGroupFile /home/me/.htgroup <Limit GET POST> Require group chunks </Limit> /home/me/.htpasswd: test:VJdx0yi1Y3LKc {blank line as suggested on one site; also tried without} /home/me/.htgroup: chunks: test ############################################################ I've tried by group, user, "valid-user", with and without "Limit" in .htaccess, with and without a group (left off and /dev/null) .... The 'password box' always comes up, but no matter what, does not authorize me. Anyone have any insight as to what I'm skipping or missing here?
