password protected trouble


I'm using a host that lets you add other domains to your account for free. All the host is doing really is adding a subdomain to my account for example the main domain is cpunut.com any other domains added to my account will be whatever.cpunut.com so when someone types in whatever.com they really go to whatever.cpunut.com.

The problem is that i have one domain that is password protected by .htaccess so when you go to passwordprotected.com and click on enter you get asked for a password.

But if someone knows that cpunut.com is the main domain you can get around the password by going to passwordprotected.cpunut.com

Any suggestions?
Thanks!

In your control panel (maybe you're using cpanel?) you can password protect that subdomain since it's just a folder in your main account. Hope this helps.
