[users@httpd] Is there anyway to password protect a directory with an *automated* batch file?
Hello Apache,
I have just finished re-designing a project in which requires
Apache. During the install phase of my project I would like to offer
the user the power to password protect certain directories.
I can pass the password to a batch file and execute it but how do I
get pass the "enter password" "enter password again" prompts?
In other words during the install phase the user is given two
password boxes for Apache. Once they continue I would like to
somehow automate the Apache batch process.
Can someone help me with this?
I currently have the following in a batch file... The root user name
is dynamically changed to what the user wishes... But how do I
automate the password prompts as that should have already been taken
care of at install?
"Apache\bin\htpasswd.exe" -c "Apache\passwd\passwords" root
Thank you to anyone who can help me with this :)

By running htpasswd.exe in batchmode using the switch '-b'?
Have a look at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/programs/htpasswd.html
for details.
