Thank you for the reponses.. However after researching htaccess, it seems like you have to create a password file. Isn't there a way to use the System userid and password for this purpose, instead of having to maintain this information in another place as well?

Edit:
When I follow the instructions to create the .htpasswd file using:

htpasswd /dir path/password_file username

I don't get the prompt to enter a password, all I get is:

ksh: htpasswd: not found

???

       a valid administrator login and password for this document server before displaying the administration tool.
