Re: [Gnump3d-users] password-protection for special URLs

[Ray Tran]

Bernd,
I have a .password file and I absolutely can't see anything without
authenticating first. If you can, then maybe you have the file in the
wrong place or there is a bug in your version. FYI, my .password
file is in the "root" defined in gnump3d.conf and I'm running v2.8.
