Ok i know how to use .htaccess and .htpassword on linux but now i must add users to apache under a windows environment.
On linux i would go
[B]$ htpasswd -c (path to .htpassword file) (username)[/B]
[I]Adding password for (username)[/I]
[I]New Password:[/I]
[I]Re-Type old password:[/I]How do i make .htpassword files under windows?
generate in linux. Download it to windows
It doesnt work ive tried that
htpasswd exists on the Windows platform alright, are you sure it isn't somewhere on your hard disk?
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/programs/htpasswd.html
Restrictions
On the Windows and MPE platforms, passwords encrypted with
htpasswdare limited to no more than255characters in length. Longer passwords will be truncated to 255 characters.
I cant find the command. Its not under /bin :(
I found a .htpassword generator on the web but it doesnt work :(
I may have to resort to rewriting my site to use MySQL and cookies for authentication
Maybe is too late, but read here:
- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/platform/win_compiling.html#projectcomponents
In order to use htpasswd.exe you have to build apache from source.
Bye :)
how can i test if mod_rewrite is loaded or no?
