[Afterburner]

if its an UNIX sytem an the system is correct configured it works, plesk is only an interface not the operating system

Very nice hack.... I found it very useful tu avoid editing the .htaccess file outside the server administration control panel... :nervous:

But I can't manage to make it working...

Actually, the function you use to hash password within the .htaccess file,

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

doesn't match with my server's algorithm. So I always get 'wrong pw error'.
I'm on a Linux / Apache server...

I saw you don't use the salt key... Hwr as you can see on http://www.php.net/crypt manual, to create an .htaccess compatible hash is suggested to use the first two chars of the pw as salt:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

It doesn't work too on my server.
I create the htaccess file with an Apache cpanel and got an hash. When trying the crypt() algorithm with different salts, I can't manage to obtain the same hash... :cross-eyed:

Thanks

With Plesk - you can go to your domain.name and go to the icon that says "Directories"... it will allow you to set that kind of access without doing the hack here. just pick the directory - then give it a username and password... and you are done....
