htpasswd and controllers

[edit]didn't know about htpasswd, seems like an odd way to do it though[/edit]

For password protecting you would want to use an auth system and then check that the logged in user has the proper access in the constructor of the controller. Then if they do not have access redirect them to the login screen or back home.

What are you trying to accomplish?
