[mythtv-users] Mythweb security

I would think a simple .htaccess file would do:

order allow,deny
allow from all
require valid-user
AuthType Basic
AuthName "MythWeb Restricted Area"
AuthUserFile /some/path/.htpasswd

You need to generate the .htpasswd file with the htpasswd utility
beforehand. There are many more things you can do with htaccess files,
naturally...

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/howto/htaccess.html

You can also set it all up in a <Directory> statement. That seems to be
what the Apache guys recommend.
