Can I have 2 members areas reading 1 password file? - GoFuckYourself.com

I have two members areas on two different domains and I would like them both to read one htpassword file on one of the domains. Is this possible? I can't figure out a way of doing it.

Thanks for any help

buy a third domain and have the members section there, then just carry your tours on the domains they are currently on

hmm.. do u have a personal programmer?

if the domains are on the same box it isn't a problem

Quick replies, thanks

I've just realised my question wasn't correct, I meant to say -

I have two members areas on two different domains and I would like them both to read the password file on their own and on each others domains.

Any ideas?

If the 2 domains are on the same server, you can have them both read from the same password file. But you can not have a sinlge protected directory read from 2 seperate password files.

In the .htaccess file you place in the directory, just set both domains to look in the same place for their passwords file.

Sure it's possible. I have 8 pay sites sharing one password file. All sites are on the same server and I use AC Pay and Globill. For my sites security I use strong box.

All you do is in the login script for each site make sure the path to the password file is the same. For example

/home/myserver/mydomain/myonepasswordfile/mypasswordfilename

Hope that helps

there's an apache mod for that problem. I'm using that on my box too. Works cool. Let me know if you need it

If you are using ccbill to process it is a piece of piss.
Just ask them to do it and they get it done in seconds. We have 4 sites :
www.badukbang.com
www.badblackbang.com
www.badgangbang.com
www.badeurobang.com
all doing exactly this.
