I am using the default web server for WinCE 6 and wish to password protect certain folders. The default VROOT /remoteadmin/ is password protected, and this works but my configuration doesn't work.

I have tried mimicking these settings on my own folders but to little success. Here is how one looks:

In the HKLM\Comm\HTTPD\VROOTS key I have created a subkey called /web/configuration (this folder actually exists on the box). The following values are in this key

  • A = 1
  • DefaultPage = config.html
  • Path = /hard disk/webroot/web/configuration/
  • UserList = ADMIN

This is nigh on identical to the settings in /RemoteAdmin/ but /RemoteAdmin/ requests a password and /web/configuration doesn't (even after reboot).
