Chapter 15 - Protect Directory
This Option is not available for FrontPage users.
The Protect Directory Option in your Control Panel allows you to restrict
access to a particular directory within your account and allowing access
by assigning usernames and passwords to individuals that you choose to
allow such access.
When you click on this option you will be taken to the following screen
where you are asked to upload the directory that you wish to Password
Protect. You can select the particular directory from the drop down list
and then click load.
Once you click load you will be taken to the following screen. The top
section of this screen is basically a repeat of the first screen and
should reflect the directory you have loaded. The bottom section is
where you assign usernames and passwords. Complete this section for
each user you are allowing access and clicking submit to save each entry.
NOTE: Usernames and passwords MUST be from
6 to 8 characters long. Any less than 6 or greater than 8 will cause
your protected directory cease to function and you will receive an error
when trying to enter the directory.
Once you have added users, you will see a list of these above the boxes
where you add them, there will be a delete option next to each one which
will allow you to delete them when you no longer want them to have access.
