Hello!

Could someone please help point me to how would it be possible to password protect a file? I just need 1 file password protected in a whole directory.

Thanks!

I am running Hiawatha 9.15. If it would be possible to do this in Hiawatha 10.0 Beta, I can upgrade.

Thanks!

I am able to use .hiawatha to password protect an entire directory (which is amazingly simple!), but I am wondering if it would be possible to password protect just a single file.

No, password protection works for the entire directory. If you want to protect a single file, move it to its own directory. You can use the UrlToolkit rewrite ability to make the previous URL for that file still work.
