Password Access

[krazytaco]

How can I add the requirement for a username and password to my site (hosted on abyss)?

[TRUSTAbyss]

Please take a look at the Documentation on this. You need to first add Users
from the Users area, than you must set a Access Controle rule.

But how would I be able to just ask for a username and password? I don't want to set up specific users.

With the Access Controle, but you first need to have some user accounts before
you can even use the feature.

Are you saying you want to use just one username for anyone that accesses your site?

If so then just open the console & click on Configure.

Then select Users and Groups & add a group & call it Friends or what ever you want.

The add the user account you want & the password.

After you add the user click the pencil beside the Group you created & check the user to add it to that Group.

Ok that until you get back to the main console & this time select the Access Control

Click add & then browse to the folder you want to require the username/password

In Realm Enter a heading you want on the username window.

I set order to Deny/Allow & then select the group you just created for Allow for.

Click Ok & then Restart

Now try to access your site.

Is this what you were looking for?

Is it possible to do as you said but put a time limit on the access? In other words after say, 24 hours that user/pass expires?
