Hello,
I read the guide and found it extremly useful , what i want to ask is that can i get some more details on where to place the .htaccess and .htpasswd files.
I understood that the .htaccess should be placed in the directory i want to password protect.
Can you please just guide me assuming i just installed a fresh copy of apache and havent changed anything from the conf file , on how to password protect everything in the htdocs folder , just tell me where exactly to put the htaccess and htpasswd files and what to include in the .htaccess file

. I have it installed on my c: partition as such C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2 <-- is this what is known as the root folder?

Thanks in advace.
