Got this in a .htaccess file for a message board - is it all ok please ?
# Uncomment the statement below if you want to make use of
# HTTP authentication and it does not already work.
# This could be required if you are for example using PHP via Apache CGI.
#
#<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
#RewriteEngine on
#RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
#</IfModule>
ps - how do you make your .htaccess file so that no-one else but the owner can amend it please ?
That’s merely setting an environment variable, HTTP_AUTHORIZATION, provided you have HTTP:Authorization set. I don’t use that so I’m not sure how to set that Apache variable - now why.
