 +====== Password protecting a directory ======
 +Please be aware that this not provide any real security and only keeps honest people honest. People viewing your page with a web browser will be required to provide a password. However, since files in your ~/html directory must be world readable to be seen by the server, anyone can view your html files directly.
 +
 +Create new password file (with a user):
 +<code>htpasswd -c .http_passwd new_user</code>
 +  - The password file should not be in your html directory, but it must be world readable.
 +  - To add more users remove ''%%-c%%'' from the above command.
 +<code>htpasswd .http_passwd user2</code>
 +Put a file .htaccess in each html directory to be restricted. Start with this template:
 +<code>
 +AuthUserFile /home/mokwa/html/.http_passwd
 +AuthName Projec
 +AuthType Basic
 +require valid-user
 +</code>
 +Now set the permissions on the .htaccess and .http_passwd file.
 +<code>
 +chmod 644 .htaccess .http_passwd
 +</code>
