Creating groups for protected directories

Before you begin setting up directory protection, make sure you have all the required information. For an overview of the directory protection process, see the topic About setting up protected directories.

Because Apache manages all user authorizations through groups, you must divide users into practical groups (for example, by department) and manage user authorization through these groups to restrict access to protected directories.

Note: The WEBppliance Help topics about setting up and managing protected directories pertain only to the directory protection feature provided by WEBppliance. If your domain supports Microsoft FrontPage, the WEBppliance directory protection forms do not show up in your workspace window; instead, you will see links to the Microsoft FrontPage administration pages. For information on using the FrontPage directory protection feature, see the Microsoft FrontPage user guide.

To create a group:

1. Open the Apache Web Server Manager.

2. In the Apache Web Server Manager menu, click Manage Groups.

   The Protect Directories: (HTAccess) Manage Groups form opens. A list of existing groups currently in the group file displays in the lower section of the form.

3. In the Add a Group area, in the Enter Group name field, enter a name for the group you are creating.

4. Click Add.

   You are now ready to add users to this group.
