Password Protect creator

Enter the required data to generate files to password protect a directory. Two files will be created: 

.htaccess
AuthUserFile /home/virtual/var/www/public_html/hiddendir/.htpasswd
AuthName "Authentication Required"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user

.htpasswd
Name01:Encrypted_Pass01
Name02:Encrypted_Pass02
Name03:Encrypted_Pass03

You'll receive a ZIP file with the two files. Place the files in the to-be-protected folder.

The proper absolute path is important. You can try to acquire it by using telnet and entering pwd, or create a php script that echoes getcwd(), but on a shared host odds are the root is fake and the authentication won't work (the dialog keeps on appearing). Ask your service provider for the actual real absolute path.
