Secure Folders

[m178591]

I am trying to install OScommerce. In the past I have always done this on linux and therefore used htaccess to secure the admin folder. How do I secure the admin section on Windows. I have removed all the htaccess files from the installation but cannot for the life of me find a way to secure the admin folder. Is this something I so from Helm, if so how? or is it done in some other way?
I'm sure this is actually very straightforward but at close of business on a Friday it is one of those trivial problems which becomes a show stopper. Can someone point me in the right direction.

Thanks

1) locate your domain in Helm (Home>User>Domains>yourdomain.com)

2) Select 'Secure Folders'

3) If it is not already, click install.

4) Click on 'Users' and create a user.

5) Go back and this time click on 'Folders', say 'Add new', and use the browser to browse to the directory in question, then save.

6)Select that directory path and select 'add new' under allowed users. Locate your user and press save.

done (hopefully.)

This is just standard http auth.

Great thanks for the pointer. New it was something trivial - forgot to enable secure folders when I set up the web resources for the account! As soon as you mentioned this the penny dropped.
