It's user specific so it depends on your wippiespace name and the server you're on. Easiest way is to setup the HTACCESS & HTPASSWD files thru My Wippies (My Wippies -> Webspace administration -> Directory administration -> Choose a folder and check Password protected on Access management section). It creates the necessary files automatically and all you have to know/define is the username and password.

If you have PHP support ordered for your wippiespace, you can also check the absolute path with this PHP file (name it as you like, upload to the server and access it thru your browser):

Code:

<?php

echo realpath(__FILE__);

?>

Well, then just create the files thru My Wippies and check the HTACCESS file for "AuthUserFile" line to get your absolute path and delete the files after that.

dotn get it

how should i create files with the my.wippiespace.com ? and how should this effect the .htaccess ?

My Wippies = https://my.wippies.com

That's the control panel for your Wippies services.

After you've created the password protection from there (thru the path I gave you on earlier post) then login thru FTP and view the generated HTACCESS file. You can see the path from there and use it in your own HTACCESS for your own purposes.
