Hoping someone can help me out here, I've been fiddling with this for the better part of the week but I can't seem to figure it out.
I'm trying to password protect a directory on my home page using .htaccess and .htpasswd.
The problem that I'm having is I am getting an Error 403 Forbidden page when I try to access the particular page.
Here is the link to the page.
http://home.cogeco.ca/~jmarshall24/
Here is my .htaccess file
AuthUserFile /path/to/my/.htpasswd
AuthName "Password Protected Area"
AuthType Basic
Options -Indexes
<limit GET POST>
require valid-user
</limit>
I have placed the .htaccess file within a directory under my root that I would like to restrict access to. I'm just getting an error? Any help would be appreciated.
