Instructions:
If you go to your CPanel there should be an icon or link that
says something like 'Password Protection'. The interface for
the password protection is kinda weird and takes a little
getting used to. Basically, you click the *icon* of the folder
to navigate and the *name* of the folder to bring up it's
protection options.
First add a user (make sure
you put both the name and the password - the interface
for changing user passwords later is worse (at least
in Mozilla, maybe it's different in IE?).
Once you have entered a user you can enter
a name for the 'Protected Resource' (i.e. My Subdomain
Protection) and check the box 'Folder requires a password
to access via http:/'
That should do it for the protection.
For login, enter your subdomain name (eg.,support)
Oh, BTW the interface problems are not
TCH's fault, it's the issue of CPanel's creators.
