I need help with htaccess

[spazlabz]

Hi scripting gurus... I am a complete scripting novice even though I have been around for years heh heh

I have a directory on one of my domains that I want to password protect. It isn't a members area or anything like that, just a place where I keep something I would prefer not everyone see.

so here is what I need to be able to do... protect that one directory while the rest of them remain open and where I can add or delete a username password without having to encrypt anything. Does anyone know how I can do that simply?


thanks for any help
