domain redirection and .htaccess password protection

Hi Willie,
The domain redirection will take place over the next few hours so
www.roisinoshea.com will be pointed to by customers then.

You can create a .htaccess password protection file by doing the following:

Create a new file. This one is called the .htpasswd file. (Notice the file
name/extension resemblance to our current subject.) This type of file is
created and saved in the same fashion as the htaccess file. The htpasswd
file will contain user names and their passwords.

Now that you have the file created, you have to enter the information into
it in the following form.

username:password
username:password
username:password

The username, a colon, and password are on individual lines and do not have
any spaces at the end of each line.

The passwords should be encrypted. You can do ths here
http://www.htmlite.com/HTA006a.php

You should now have the usernames and passwords entered. Store this file in
the root folder (below the public_html folder.

Here’s the code for the .htaccess file to put into roisin’s root director
(~roisinos)

AuthUserFile /home/svqxsjfl/.htpasswd
AuthType Basic
AuthName “Not publically available yet, Sorry!”

require valid-user

Sincerest regards,

…shane
