How to set up authentication with Apache?

There are mainly two possibilites to achieve a password protected directory with the webserver:

Solution 1: By using .htaccess files you can create a text file with the passwords and usernames of your authenticated users. When you opt for the .htaccess solution we need to set up the .htaccess usage for you. It is disabled by default to increase the performance.

Solution 2: By using the mod_auth_mysql module which runs on the server. In this case we need to set up a MySQL database for you. You then can set up and manage your authenticated users from a MySQL table.
