i am using apache server and presently when i try accessing any
folders of my website i am able to browse the files ex = www.website.com/images
which is a serious security risk as i am building a forum website
using php and mysql.
in the root directory i have created a .htaccess file and whenever
someone access a file which is not
on the server i have created a user friendly message that the file
does not exist instead of a 404
error message displayed by the browser.
similar to this how can i go about restricting users to browse all my
folders in the toot directory.
if anyone accesses for ex = www.website.com/phpscripts an alert should
appear asking them to enter a
username and password.
1. how can i do this using apache.
2. where do i write the username and password information and will
this apply to all the folders in
the root directory or specific directories.
please advice.
thanks.
This has nothing to do with PHP. Try an Apache newsgroup.
