Re: [ProgSoc] Cannot get access

[James Wan <jywan@nospam.socs.uts.edu.au>]

Yeah,
	you're suppose to use htpasswd on your .htpasswd file to create
passwords to various logins.

Also, if anyone can tell me how to override the [401] error page
so i can stick my own error page instead..
is the file called notauth.html i create and stick it in the directory
where .htaccess resides ?

Thanks,
	James
