My .htaccess on Rackspace looks like this:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthUserFile /path-to-htdocs/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
Now I would expect this to password protect the whole directory, however, it only protects files with .php extension! What is wrong with it? Is it something in the default http.conf that I cannot override? The path used to .htpasswd is correct as it accepts the user/passwd in the case of .php
