I want to put in config file the Digest md5 Password Verification

I am on XPWindows

In the config file,
How should I set up the

</Directory>

Thanks in Advance,

There is an example in the mod_auth_digest documentation.

This example uses <Location> rather than <Directory>, but the same authentication directives can be used inside either one.

I got a service specific error on attempting to restart Apache 2 with


<Directory /private>
AuthType Digest
AuthName "private area"
AuthDigestDomain /private/ http://phpmailer.glascna.org/phpFileUpload/
AuthDigestProvider file
AuthUserFile C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/.digest_pw
Require valid-user
</Directory>

Did I make a mistake?

Thanks in Advance,

You definitely need to put your password filename inside double-quotes because it contains spaces: "Program Files", "Apache Group".
