Password protected web pages

This is a discussion about Password protected web pages in the Linux Security category; Converting my web pages from NT 4. 0 to RH 9. 0. Manage to move the pages, and fix the hyperlinks, but I have some sections of the web pages that need access to only certain groups of people, so I need web pages that can be only accessed by passwords.

Assuming your using Apache webserver, you can manage authentication with .htaccess or config files. Here's a link that describes them in detail
 
Authentication in Apache: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/howto/auth.html
 
.htaccess description: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/howto/htaccess.html
 
Hope that answers your question
 
PS. If your new to linux, install webmin ( http://www.webmin.com) on your server to help you configure these things.
