Re: Web Auth.

["Brent L. Cox" <redhatmail charter net>]

ok it does prompt now but when I enter the user ID and 
Password I ask for it again like it was incorrect and 
after 3 times I get auth. req. 

I used this command to create mt .htpasswd file\

htpasswd -c .htpasswd blcox

this is my entry in the httpd.conf file

<Directory "/var/www/html">
     Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks
     AllowOverride All
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
</Directory>

and this is my .htaccess file


AuthType Basic
AuthName "Secure area"
AuthUserFile /home/blcox/.htpasswd
require valid-user


can someone please tell me what Iam doing wrong.

Thanks
Brent
