	<p>htaccess is a system for handling access control to your pages. It
works by placing an <tt>.htaccess</tt> file in a directory, which
contains the access control lists for that directory. It is possible
to get fine grained security and to configure exactly who can view
which pages. The <i>.htaccess support</i> module must be
enabled for htaccess to work.

<p>It is possible to distinguish users either by the IP address or
domain name of their computer or by letting them authenticate with a
user name and password. The user name and password is by default
compared via an <i>authentication</i> module. That usually means that
users are authenticated by the operating systems authentication
system.

<p>If you want to have password protected pages usable by users that
are not handled by the current Authentication module you can create
your own database of users by creating <tt>.htpasswd</tt> and
<tt>.htgroup</tt> files.

<p>htaccess is a standard supported by many web servers. The access
control you have built with htaccess should therefore be portable to
other web servers.
