So are these for systems which are on satellite? I really didn't say in my original post, but we are on fiber here with plenty of bandwidth for our needs and server loads on the system in question are completely acceptable. Most of the time under 1. We are a hosting company and simply trying to provide additional services for our clients and in this case htaccess is by far the best solution for login to a protected directory.
