password protecting a directory-changing from 50 users to >50

[partherton]

#1. I see where I can password protect a directory with 50 users or less thru the CNC. If I do that, then later find that the number of users will increase beyond 50, and I have to move to a free or purchased script, can I move the 50 users already registered to the new script, or will they have to re-register all over again when I change from CNC to script?

#2 Using the CNC to password protect a directory, how do I set it up to allow the users to register via a webpage and allow me to approve each registration?

If you suspect that there is a good liklihood of your userbase growing beyond 50, then I would recommend setting up a script that uses mod_auth_db as referenced in this forum thread:

The CNC Password protection is not designed to be integrated with online registration...although it could probably be done...it would be easier to just use a password management script in the first place.
