Cgi script please help!
ok so for the project i had to log in amazon node to submitted and create a captcha using cgi scripts its for a unix project this is my amazon node address ss. but first i have to create a .ht access to set the master password. can someone please help me???

in public_html, create a file named ".htaccess" with the following content:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "CIS440"
AuthBasicProvider file
AuthUserFile <path name to your password file. see below>
Require valid-user




in order to create your own password file to be used for "AuthUserFile", do this

htpasswd -c <path name to the password file> <your user id> <your web password>

the password file should be somewhere not under the public_html directory (you would not want someone to be able to download your password file)
