one of our clients has requested that we password protect one of his directors in httpdocs, i figured not a problem since plesk has protected directories.
well its not as simple as i had hoped,
I created a directory in httpdocs named protected - then went to the directories button to set it to protected
I enabled protection
added a user named test, and a password
and attempted to go to the directory.
and got a password window as i had expected
and attempted to log in
didnt go through,
so i rechecked the username and password, and they were correct
so i tried a username that i use to admin the server with in RDC, and it went through.
.....
can someone tell me step by step the proper way to make a secure directory, that is visible under ftp.
thanks.
