Since you specify 'apache' in your subject, I'll take the guess that your tried to password protect some directory on your webserver with a .htaccess file (or directly in httpd.conf).
- Which kind of authentication did you use (Basid, Digest...) ? - How did your create and where did you store the user (and possibly group) credentials ? - Can you paste the content of your .htaccess file (or the relevant part of your httpd.conf) - If you are using .htaccess and that you're not in charge of the global server configuration, are you sure the admin did not disabled password protection on your directory ? Anyway, more info needed to help you out. |
I am having a similar problem here. I want to have the password file somewhere that no user can read it but it only works when i have it set to 644. This way all users can read the file and I consider this as a security issue. So jitheshmurali, make sure your password file (that must be indicated in the .htaccess file) is set to 644.

I have my apache 2 installed under /usr/local/apache2. Everything from there down is owned by the apache user and apache group with the permissions set to 0 for others. For example:
Code:
chown -R apache:apache /usr/local/apache2 |
