Question

Hello, I configured twiki with .htaccess. I have two issues. FYI...I am able to restrict view page for the authentication but not configure page. I restricted the view page from lib/LocaSite.cfg, but wasn't able to restrict configure from there. 1. I am unable to restrict configure from the browser for the outside world. it is viewable to all the users, i want to restrict it by asking for authentication. how i can achieve it? - I have made the changes in .htaccess to restrict the files as "configure"

2. I have redirected /var/html/index.html to view page using symlink but when I access my host in the browser http://www.teno.com it opens up the view script in the browser instead of going to the view page and asking for authentication as I have restricted view page as well. I also tried in the root in .htaccess with Redirect command but is not working. cd /var/www/html ln -s /var/www/cgi-bin/bin/view index.html

Any help would be highly appreciated

hello, i have resolved this. it was because i made a mistake in httpd.conf and due to some reason overwritten it disabling .htaccess. After enabling it again by replacing AllowOverride to All i was able to accomplish the security.. Thank you
