Thanks, I got it working, sort of. I can not get het htpasswd to make a password for me. I made a copy of my passwd.master file, then edited it to work for my .htpasswd file so I could try it. It worked great. But I guess I dont have the htpasswd program installed. I tried using it as you said below, but says command not found. Does that mean I do not have the program? Can I execute the program from any directory? Where can I get htpasswd, and where do I put it on my tree? Thanks for your help. >The password files are most easily handled with a program htpasswd which >comes with NCSA and Apache.
