Setup a webpage requiring a password to be viewed?

I would like to limit access to a webpage that I've posted to the internet
(on our server). Is it possible to have a page prompt for a password before
allowing the page to be viewed?

The easiest way to do this is to create a subweb with unique permissions
(not inherited from the parent web), and set up the permissions for the
subweb to authenticate users. Another alternative is to use a database and
server-side programming to password-protect individual pages in the web, but
that requires programming skill to do.

Your host will have to support subwebs and unique permissions under the FP Server Extensions
