To password-protect specific pages or areas of your web site, you can use either the Password Protect Directories feature in your cPanel (just click on the Password Protect Directories icon), or if you are familiar with .htaccess Files you can use .htaccess to assign a password to a specific area of your site. Either of these methods will produce a login popup window similar to the one you see when you login to your cPanel.
If you want to protect a specific page, you must first create a special directory for it, put the page into the new folder, and then assign username and password access for that folder.
NOTE: If you are using
FrontPage you CANNOT use the Password Protect feature in your cPanel. If you do,
you will render your FrontPage site inoperable. See special instructions
for FrontPage users on the Password Protect Directories
page, or see similar instructions at this FAQ
about password protecting pages with FrontPage.
