Hi, I am relatively new to Galaxy. I would like to set it up as an apache password protected site. I have tried to do it, but I realize now that it has its own server built-in and that it is ineffective to set up .htaccess because it isn't reading .htaccess (or so I think).
More information: Apache works (test page loads, and I can change it), and Galaxy works (I even made a new tool that is working). I have Ubuntu 12.
My basic, basic need is to set up a server-level password like what .htaccess would provide. Could anyone help? Thank you.
