Password Protecting
Directories
The Directory Protection Manager is also available from
the File Manager page. This tool allows you to set password
protection on specified directories. This tool is accessed by
clicking the Password link for the directory to which you would
like to apply password protection.
How To Apply Password Protection to a Directory:
- From the File Manager, select the Password
link that corresponds to the directory to which you would
like to apply password protection. The Directory Protection
Manager page displays.
- In the section marked Choose the directory
you would like to work with, the Directory field should display
the desired directory. If it does not, select the appropriate
directory by using the field's drop-down list and clicking
the Load button.
- In the Add/Modify a user for directory: "directory
name", type an existing or new user name in the User ID field.
- Type a password for that user in the Password
field. If you are creating a new user name, the password is
created along with it. If you are modifying an existing user
name, the original password is changed to whatever you enter.
- Once the information is entered, select the
Submit button. The Directory Protection Manager page reappears
with an additional option available.
- Now, there is a section called Remove a user
for directory: directory name. Once there is a user set up
with password access to the directory that user can be removed
by selecting the user name from the User ID field then clicking
on Remove.
- When finished, select the Control Panel link
(it could have another name) in the right corner of the top
frame to return to the Control Panel. There is no direct link
straight back to the File Manager from here.
