.htaccess and robots.txt?

[duden]

Hi,

I'm trying to disallow robots.txt from viewing with .htaccess like that:

<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>

<Files robots.txt>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>

Now, my question is : could the robots read the robots.txt and if not does it mean that they will index the whole site?

Thanks.

Yes, if they cannot read robots.txt for any reason, then that means that they should fetch all URLs on your site.
