I am managing a very small, non-commercial site, authored in FrontPage. The owner now wants a very simple password protection put on parts of the site - no user name, just a simple password that we can alter every year. Is this possible using FrontPage? If not, any suggestions for a simple, cheap way of achieving this?

Many thanks, Dave

What server OS are you using? Unix or Windows?

you could fire up htaccess password protection per folder in the blink of an eye. There a ton of scripts that will do it for you and give you a control panel to mange it etc. Have a look at: [hotscripts.com...]
