Topic closed positively: it works FINE with htaccess !! --------------------------------------------------------- AuthUserFile <full_path_to_the_htpasswd_file> AuthGroupFile /dev/null AuthName "Restricted Stuff" AuthType "Basic" <Files perso> require valid-user </Files> --------------------------------------------------------- And goodie : an htpasswd file generator : http://www.poplarware.com/cgi-bin/htpasswd.cgi Sorry for the bother. Nicolas.

Actually, I am not sure about this. If I remember my technical years and if I read for instance "http://www.cgiextremes.com/extras/Tips_Tutorials/htaccess.html", I can NOT do what I want from htaccess files. It is rather an Apache configuration file (httpd.conf) property. And I guess I can not ask for this can I ? Any suggestion welcome, Thanks again, Nicolas.

Hi, I have searched the August forums about this and found some similar topics but no exact response : I would like to protect a URL, NOT a directory; Because I am using a CMS, the URL does not automatically map to a directory. For instance I want to protect any URL that starts with http://mydomain/perso/ Normally this can be done with .htaccess and .htpasswd files. Is it the case at tch ? Is there any online support to build these .htpasswd files or do I have to create them myself (normally a UNIX thing) Thanks very much for your support, Regards Nicolas.

Thumbs Up Yes I have it working. I am now only starting to play with it. The good thing is, I can also do it from work now !

Thanks to all for your friendly replies, it feels nice. Now I need to find what content I will put in the CMS, and the time to do it ! Have a nice week, Nicolas.

And that's it. I have done it twice without success, and since I started to ask for help and do it again from scratch, it works. The demo effect. So basically you're right, it straighforward. At least a topic about textpattern is started ! Thanks, Nicolas.

Hi Lisa, I agree it should be up quickly, I am going to re-install again in order to avoid time loosing to you. But I have tried twice, while I have installed it many times on local machine. Version installed is the later one. My config.php file is somethink like : <?php $txpcfg['db'] = 'n-gauth_textpattern'; $txpcfg['user'] = 'n-gauth_nico'; $txpcfg['pass'] = '<the passwd>'; $txpcfg['host'] = 'localhost'; $txpcfg['table_prefix'] = ''; $txpcfg['txpath'] = '/home/n-gauth/public_html/cms/tp/textpattern'; $txpcfg['doc_root'] = '/home/n-gauth/public_html'; $txpcfg['secret_word'] = 'spinach'; ?> and I get a blank page when going to the admin part : http://www.n-gauthier.net/cms/tp/textpattern/ I give it another try. Nicolas.

Hi Raul, thanks for your reply. I have seen that LISA was speaking about textpattern briefly in one of the thread about Moveable Type. That's why I asked in the forum. Textpattern is not fully documented yet unfortunately, but promising. It runs on my PC under EasyPhp, no pb, so I am surprised that it does not run at tch since you're quite up to date in terms of PHP support ! I'll wait some more support from txp, or from other users. Regards, Nicolas.

Hi, I am trying to install the Textpattern CMS software and have problems: does anybody have already installed this software on the tch servers ? The installation script is dead easy and confirms installation is OK, but I can only see a blank page when accessing the front page of TXP. There is no logging yet so I have no clue about where to look for the pb. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Nicolas.

Hello tch, I am having problems to make use of the anonymous FTP on my site. 2 kinds of problems, as shown in the image : http://www.n-gauthier.net/download/ano_ftp_pb.JPG I login as 'anonymous@n-gauthier.net' on the server "n-gauthier.net" : OK - 1 - I have uploaded few files on the "public_ftp" and "public_ftp/incoming" subdirectories, but I can not see them nor 'get' them from my ftp anonymous session. On the image you can see the left side: no file listed. Idem from dos cmd utility (I precise: full unix rights - 777 - on these files) - 2 - I can not upload to "public_ftp/incoming" because I get the error shown on the image and that was already mentionned on the forum (see message http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/i...showtopic=6173) Any help on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much, Nicolas.
