Password Protecting Web Pages on homepages.wmich.edu

You may sometimes want to restrict access to certain pages or areas of your Web site. This can be done by using password protection. You may:

Use the Interactive Password Protection Program (you will be asked to enter the Bronco NetID and password of the account you wish to password protect pages in, and you may not use spaces in your folder names) to:

  • Provide a single username and password that all visitors will use. You determine the username and password and you provide it to the visitors you want to be able to access those pages.
  • Require any WMU Bronco NetID access. This limits access to persons having a WMU Bronco NetID, i.e. WMU students, faculty, or staff.
  • Combine Bronco NetID access and a specific username and password. This would be useful if you wished to allow all WMU access to your pages, and certain non-WMU visitors access.
