Hi,

Is it possible to password protect bandmin or /bandwidth/ in the browser ? so only I can get access to it or root

How do I do this ?

Regards,
Garry

pico /usr/local/bandmin/htdocs/.htaccess

Put the following in the file:

AuthUserFile /usr/local/bandmin/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Bandwidth Login"
AuthType Basic

<Limit GET POST>
require valid-user
</Limit>

Hit Ctrl+X then Y and then Enter

Then

htpasswd -c /usr/local/bandmin/.htpasswd username
(username is the username you want to create)
enter your password
enter your password again

If you dont have htpasswd installed on your server you can go to http://www.euronet.nl/~arnow/htpasswd/ to generate one. Then just use pico to edit /usr/local/bandmin/.htpasswd and paste the line of text that the site gave you into it.

you'll have to enter the full path to htpasswd because its not installed in any users $PATH
