Ick. I hadn't heard any complaints about this, so I had assumed that
since the htpasswd file wasn't present, it was just being ignored.
Anyway, as Alan said, the info is in .htaccess. Either pull it out, or
create your own htpasswd file with (of all things) the htpasswd program.
And on that note, what do people think. I use a password (and ssl)
because my mythweb stuff is open to the world (so I can set up
recordings while out of town, etc). I can remove this stuff from the
.htaccess file in cvs if too many people find it to be a hassle, or I
can add instructions to the README about how to create passwords (since
it is a nice security feature).
