Password Protecting A Directory

This allows you to store sensitive material online and restrict material to authorised users only. You can protect directories within your site from browsers by using a password to protect them. This has the same appearance and effect as the password protection on the Hosting Manager.

1. Login to your Hosting Manager.

2. Click Directory Protection on the home page.

3. Find the directory that you want to protect. Click on the folder name link to select a folder, or click on the folder icon to open a folder.

4.

Click the tick box next to the icon.

5.

Type the name that you want to appear in the Protected Resource Name field. This is optional and purely for the user's benefit.

6.

Click Save. Generally, you now need to add at least one authorized user to enable access to the directory. Refer to Adding an Authorised User for more information.
