OK So a friend and I have set up uniform server and all seems well we want to publish our web sites to it, that seems to be working OK , I can publish my site using NVU on my linux box here at my office, However if we set the sites up so everyone on the web can see them then it seems everyone on the web can write to them!!!! without passwords or security, I know I'm misiing something after looking over the Unicenter site I'm not sure what. we want to allow all to read but only the web administrators to be able to publish to their respectivew sites Using htaccess I can give myself my own password for my site but then only those with that password can access the site to see what I've posted, and then it's really not a web site is it? please just point me in the right direction.
