Hi When i try to use the "password protect directories" in cpanel , it says "frontpage extension is installed, you can protect using frontpage ".

 

But i can't see any options such that protect directory in frontpage extentsion.

Create a file named '.htaccess' in the folder you wish to protect and paste the following code:

AuthUserFile /home1/hacker/protected/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "A Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic

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

 

Create another file named '.htpasswd' in the folder you wish to protect and use this website to generate the contents:

http://www.htaccesstools.com/htpasswd-generator/

 

Don't use the cPanel Password Protect otherwise your work may be overwritten!
