I already have the admin directory protected, its the *admin.cgi* script I want to protect in cgi-bin (I can only run scripts from cgi-bin nowhere else!)
I also run other cgi-bin scripts so .ht* files stop the use of all of them unless I move the 'links' scripts further down the tree by creating a subdirectory in cgi-bin - unfortunately this invalidates all the references the script makes to the admin/data directory.
Manually editing the script and adding ../ infront of the references works for some of the admin.cgi functions, but not for others.
I also run WebAdverts and that has a handy 'login' introduction before you start using the main functions of the script - would that be possible for admin.cgi (and is that what all the threads are about for v3.0?)
All the best
