Hello all, this is my first post here and it's a bit of a strange one I think.
I'm running Apache 2.2.4 on a home server Win xp home, I have it setup so you have to log in to the server (htdigest), ez enough right. So I wanted to password protect some folders on my server, the first 1 I did, the setup went good. Restarted the server, went on line and logged on and went to the dir. where the folder should be a password on it. But it's no where to be found, disappeared so to speak. But while I'm still in that dir. like this:
http://wwwmywebsite.com/music I add /bootleg in the addy bar it will ask me to log in and I can. So my question is, why would that folder not be seen in my apache index, but it is there because I can log in to it.
If anyone can help me, or even understand me, any help would mean alot.

<Directory "E:/File Server">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
IndexOptions FancyIndexing VersionSort NameWidth=*
HeaderName /header.html
ReadmeName /footer.html
AuthType Digest
AuthName server
AuthUserFile "C:/Documents and Settings/Owner/My Documents/Password.txt"
Require valid-user
</Directory>

<Directory "E:/File Server/music/bootleg">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
IndexOptions FancyIndexing VersionSort NameWidth=*
HeaderName /header.html
ReadmeName /footer.html
AuthType Digest
AuthName "bootleg"
AuthUserFile "C:/Documents and Settings/Owner/My Documents/Password.txt"
Require valid-user
</Directory>

Hello!
That your folder disappears is because there is an config error!

I tried that out, and had the following error.
Quote:

[Mon Mar 26 10:06:02 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] access to /music/bootleg/ failed, reason: verification of user id '<null>' not configured, referer: http://127.0.0.1/


OK, I had an empty Passwort.txt because I don't know much about Auth Digest. Why don't you use Auth Basic?

How did you created that password file? Did you use md5 for encryption?
