  you need to use htpasswd to create the file for AuthUserFile
  rtfm 
  man htpasswd
  see also the documentation for mod_auth in Apache

    - All Modules have been installed and to my knowledge are working correctly.  

    - FreeBSD 4.3 Release: MySQL

    Not really an errror just a question on my configuration.  I am running apache 1.3.19_1

    here is my question, this is the first time i have ever used the mapsecrets stuff.   

    here is what i have, i don't think it is correct because i can not get into my site through a browser because i am not clear where my password comes from. 


    in my .htaccess file i have the following.  

    AuthName "restricted stuff"
    AuthType Basic
    AuthUserFile /usr/local/etc/freeside/mapsecrets
    require valid-user

    then in my mapsecrets i have

    admin sec_admin      

    where admin is the user and sec_admin is the secrets file

    then in my sec_admin file i have

    DBI:mysql:freeside
    freeside
    free1


    where the first line is my connection string
    second is my dbusername
    third is dbpassword

    so i guess what i am askig is, where do i assign the password for the account admin?  do i have something messed up?
