Securing Apache directory
Hello,
I have several pages in apache that I want to secure with user and password. Securing it with basic authentication in Apache is not enough.
Can you please suggest a good and relatively not very complicated ways to do it? Also, link to how-to guide will be more than appriciated :)
Alex.

Re: Securing Apache directory
Note that Unix crypt is a poor encryption scheme.
I'd suggest HTTPS, using client and server side certificate checking vs. basic_auth (which is the native username/password scheme). HTTPS has been done a lot, so there are plenty of examples / libraries out there to help.
Alternatively, if you really want to use user/pass, you could *not* check the client cert (still checking server cert to avoid man-in-the middle), and then use basic auth over HTTPS.
