Password Protecting a Published Project

Hello,
We are using RH7 WebHelp. My department works on RH projects
for a number of different departments within our company. One
department (HR) has asked if we can restrict access to their
materials from the rest of the company once we have published them.
Their material will obviously have its own URL, but they are
concerned that others may learn that address and gain access to
their materials. Is there a way to password protect their project
or otherwise restrict access to it? Thanks in advance.

Hi TW
You need to speak to your web development team. WebHelp
output is like any other site. Just a collection of HTML pages. So
they should be able to configure the Web space so only authorized
individuals could have access.
Cheers... Rick

  • Password Protect a Publisher Document

    Hi,
    Please can anyone let me know whether it is possible to password protect a Publisher 2007 document.
    Many Thanks.

    So far as I know, we couldn't add the password within Publisher itself, but we can save it in a password protected zip folder.

  • Password protected Sharepoint publishing site

    Hello, 
    We have used Sharepoint 2013 to design and publish a large scale website.  I was wondering if there is a way to password protect an individual page or sub site?  The system is linked up to our staff log in authentication system but I can't find
    a way to only allow staff to access a particular page on and external website.
    Has anyone got any suggestions for this?
    Thanks 

    You can set item level permissions on pages. View the pages in the pages library, drop down the action menu on the item and select Manage Permisisons.

  • Is there any way to password protect a project in aperture 3?

    I have certain projects that I don't want viewable by others that may use my computer.  Is there any way to password protect a certain project or album to restrict access?

    No. You can hide images using the "reject" rating, and you can password protect a Library by putting it on a password-protected sparsebundle.
    A good answer
    A search of this Discussion forum.
    OS X has fast-user switching and a built-in Guest account.  I never allow anyone access to my account.
    To limit a client's view to just his/her Projects, use Aperture's "Favorites" function.  A forum regular -- Shutters33d, iirc -- posted this excellent suggestion just a couple of days ago.

  • Password protect published Calendar?

    It's a couple of click to publish a calendar to .MAC
    But is there a way to password protect the published page so only authorised people can view it?
    I tried to upload to my own server but cannot accomplish it...

    Hi,
    Don't know if your still trying to do this or not but I managed it using iWeb 08 and .MAC
    The problem with the Apple solution is that you have to give out your .MAC user/password which is far from ideal. If you create a website to hold your calendar(s) using iWeb and give the site a username/password and then publish it to your dotmac account you can then publish your calendars using iCal to a private server (your dotmac account) and users will use the username/password you provided in iWeb NOT your .MAC ones!
    To do the publishing bit in iCal simply select Private Server and type in:
    http://idisk.mac.com/username/Web/Sites/yoursitename
    Make sure you provide your .MAC username and password, this will be used by iCal to access your iDisk but users will use the username/password you provided in iWeb!
    Not sure if it works with previous versions of iWeb, you only need iWeb to set up the site and make it password protected.

  • How to password protect a site that is NOT published to .mac?

    Hi There,
    I was wondering if anyone has got a workaround for this in iWeb. I would like to password protect a site but am not publishing it to .mac. Is there a piece of code you can stick into the HTML manually to do this?
    Thanks!
    s

    I am answering my own question! A friend tipped me off — your hosting company may offer password protection. That was the case for me. I went into the site settings and was able to set up a password for the entire site or only certain directories. I hope this helps someone!

  • Cannot publish new password protected sites to MobileMe using iWeb

    Recently been getting the familiar iWeb error messages when publishing from iWeb to mobile me:
    "There was an error updating MobileMe"
    "An error occurred while publishing file '/Web/Sites/Sites.rss"
    "Publish error: An unknown error occurred"
    Did all the troubleshooting stuff detailed here - problem persists.
    Today, tho', I've just noticed that these errors *only occur when I'm trying to publish a new password-protected site or trying to apply password-protection to an existing unprotected site*.
    It works just fine when publishing a site which is not password-protected. It is also possible to modify an existing password-protected site without any trouble.
    There's nothing odd about the passwords - all legal characters etc.
    It would be better for me and my users if I could have password protection on my sites. Without passwords, I'm left relying on 'security by obscurity' - not ideal.
    What can I do?

    You could split up your single Domain file into several Domain files each containing a group of sites. You'll have to duplicate (via Finder) the Domain file usually located here:
    ...and then double-click one of the copies to open it in iWeb. Then delete the site(s) you don't need from it. Repeat the process until you have a more manageable group of Domain files each containing several (or just one) site(s). Note that this process is not easily reversible, i.e. merging Domain files. Read more in Chapter 2 here:
    http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWebMultiplewebsites.html
    With "many, many sites", this splitting process is not without risk — so before doing anything, don't forget this:

  • Link to other published web folder from within password protected iWeb site

    I realise that you cannot password protect an iWeb site if it contains a link to an external page / file. However, I have a complex genealogy site that I had previously published to another site. I directly copied this folder to the iWeb directory alongside the folder for the protected site published from iWeb. I have tried all sorts of link URLs on the protected site page, trying to link to the genealogy index.html file. iWeb refuses to allow password protection or even point correctly to the site.
    Does anyone know how to create a suitable link to a site folder created elsewhere?

    I have a password protected site with a page that has a link to an ordinary homepage.mac.com page, with no problems. Could you provide more details on what is not working for you? Maybe putting your geneology folder in iDisk/Sites and linking to that would help?

  • Can I password protect my iMovie 9 or 11 event and/or project?

    I have created an event in iMovie09 using the internal MACbook camera.  I want to password protect the event so that no one can open/view the movie without the appropriate password - I need to provide 2 levels of security for the movie for privacy purposes.  Can I save the file outside of iMovie, password protect it, and then import it into iMovie when I'm ready to view?  I'm open to multi-step ways to make it happen!

    you have diff. options:
    • what I would do, simply purchase some small 2.5" usb-drive, drag Project&Events FROM WITHIN iMovie onto it and put ext.drive in a 'secure' place. whenever you have to work with these Events, plug it in, you're done.
    • … if Events are small, and wallet big, you get 128GBs usb-flash mem-sticks .... tape the stick under a drawer (omg! I told the secret place!!)
    • if you need that extra grain of security: after transfering the two folders, create a disk-image with the disk-utility, apply a secure password, drag both folders into it - you can NOT work from such a disk-image, you have to have it manually open and drag both folders out of it into original location.
    btw: you lose the pw, all data is lost! no way to restore it … ok, some friends in Fort Meade could ……
    • finally: why keeping this stuff at all? complete the Project, export the final movie, erase all traces. keep the movie where and how you like (see above suggestions).
    being paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you!

  • Password Protecting FCP project files

    Why does Avid, Apple, Vegas Video, Ulead, etc. not offer password protected project files? This seems to be a simple technology. When you are on the high school and college level it's a constant battle to keep students from jacking with other student projects. If could open a project and it asks for your password, it would be heaven on this level. It makes sense to me. Can someone make the argument for why it does not?

    Your school district's IT security people are idiots. Not their fault, It's a definition. There is simply no way to protect your computers from intelligent and skilled students. Why are you punishing them for acquiring crucial and relevant skills? The fact they have no morals is the problem.
    Anyway, running Macs in labs under the highest security is not a problem, the military does it. All you need is the right tools and some background. You can set up any level of encryption or password protection you can be bothered to enforce and maintain. There are huge Web sites dedicated to the practice. Find a kid who wants to get an A in your video class and turn him loose. Make him do a business proposal and a proof of concept demonstration. Heck, PAY the little rat.

  • Help, i cant password protect when i publish to my .Mac account

    Whenever i try to put a password-protect my site i keep on getting an error message when im publishing to my .Mac account. "there was an error updating your .Mac account". When i publish my site without the password protection everything goes smoothly and no problems.
    Is there some setting i dont know of that is preventing me from doing so?
    Does it take time for this feature to work? (i only bought the subscription and registered to .Mac yesterday)
      Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    nah... giving up now. cant password protect the site
    told .mac support, they said its a problem with my ISP. Im inclining to agree. Unfortunately the ISp dont have mac tech support. so yeah.
    hope the next few updates are less awry.

  • How to password protect mobileme gallery after its been published?

    Is there a way to quickly add password protection to a already published set of pics instead re-uploading and choosing to protect it before the initial upload?

    Yes. Just as you can update a MobileMe gallery with additional photos after initial publishing, you can update the settings including password protection.
    Within Aperture, with the gallery "album" up, select the MobileMe popup menu from the tools at the bottom right of the screen. Within that, select "Settings..." Then edit the "Album viewable by:" section accordingly and re-"Publish." No need to re-upload your photos.
    Some gallery/album settings can be modified via browsing into the MobileMe gallery, but to the best of my knowledge password protection cannot be modified there...

  • Password Protect Published iCal on MobileMe

    I would like to password protect calendars I publish on MobileMe. Is this possible? If not, it should be.
    Thanks.

    I agree -- even a hash would be better than the plain-text, everyone-can-find-it link that the publish option provides.

  • Publish a web-viewable password-protected calendar?

    Is there any way to publish a web-viewable password-protected calendar?
    There is info here about publishing to your iDisk w/ password protection:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61725
    But I need something that doesn't require iCal to access! For instance something that I could access via a web browser on a public computer, and would have to input a password to access.
    Is this possible, or is this a missing functionality?

    Hi UniAce, apparently in one of the recent versions of iCal you can now publish your ICS file (from iCal 'publish' command) onto a private server that is not WebDav... which was the requirement in the past.
    View your iCalendar on the web
    Here is a link to a program called PHP iCalendar that basically uses your ICS file that you've 'published' via iCal and makes it into a viewable HTML calendar.
    My problem with it
    I don't have .Mac and haven't tried it with that, but even though the program works great after a bit of installation (you should be comfortable with HTML editing to use PHP iCalendar, but not necessarily PHP) I could not get iCal to export my ICS file properly – it appeasr to upload properly in iCal, but then the file is 0 bytes on the server which is, in turn, making PHP iCalendar have a problem viewing it.
    How I got around it
    I ended up finding the 'resource' file that had my calendar and setup an automator action that locates that file, copies it to a location on my hard drive, renames it then 'opens' it with a Transmit droplet, which uploads it where I want it.
    Hope this helps, let me know if it's something that may work for you.

  • Publish Password Protect Calendar for Web-Browsers?

    I read the various help resources in OS 10.4.11 and online and can't seem to figure out if a calendar can be shared with password protection so that anyone using a web browser who knows the password only can access it. From what I've read, Apple says I can post the calendar to a private (presumably password protected) website, but while users can subscribe to it using iCal, they won't be able to read it with a web browser which sort of defeats sharing it privately over multiple OS platforms.
    Anybody know if there's a way to keep my online calendar private, password protected? Thanks in advance!
    Sorry If I am repeating, but I cannot seem to search the discussion forums anymore.

    Thanks for your help -- I'm not an expert by any means -- this is my first website... just wanting to put up a family website to share with friends & people I know.
    OK, the url is http://www.hickorytech.net/~rmgrazi/
    Right now I just have a blank page up that says "test website"
    My .htaccess file is located in /rmgrazi/public_html/ (yes, I put it inside the public folder in order to password protect my whole site).
    By the way I'm using TextEdit in OS X, so when I upload the original file with Fetch, it looks like htaccess.txt -- after it's uploaded (as text, not binary of course) then I simply change the name to .htaccess
    My .htaccess file includes the following:
    AuthUserFile /rmgrazi/.htpasswd
    AuthName Members Area
    AuthType Basic
    Require valid-user
    Then I uploaded the .htpasswd one level up to /rmgrazi/ like it says in .htaccess.
    The text in this file is just one line with my username:password (the password is written in code). I found a website that does this automatically. Then I just cut & paste it in apple+v
    I tried using the Terminal application in OS X panther to see if the server path needs to be longer -- I logged into my ftp.hickorytech.net and entered "pwd" -- that command is supposed to show the server path. /rmgrazi/public_html/ are the only folders I can see. "/" is as far back as it will show.
    In Fetch I can change the permissions for .htaccess and .htpasswd by clicking Get Info -- I tried all different combinations, 644, 711, etc... Maybe my permissions are set wrong?
