just make sure you restrict access to awstats .
Use a .htaccess file that contains:
| Code: |
AuthName awstats
AuthUserFile /path/to/awstats.pwd
AuthType Basic
<Limit GET POST>
require valid-user
</Limit>
|
Save the .htaccess file in the same directory where you have your awstats.pl script.
/path/to/awstats.pwd is the file that contains the user/password info for the users that will have access to awstats.pl, it is recommended you keed this file in a directory that is not accessible from web.
to add a user to this file you can use :
if the file /path/to/awstats.pwd is not empty use :
| Code: | | htpasswd username /path/to/awstats.pwd |
if the file is empty you should use :
| Code: | | htpasswd -c username /path/to/awstats.pwd |
