Is there any way to access mythgallery via mythweb?

Easiest way would be to add a symbolic link to the /var/www directory pointing to your MythGallery directory. Try the following:
Code:
ln -s /myth/gallery/ /var/www/MythGallery

then point your webbroweser to:
Code:
http://<mythtv-ip-address>/MythGallery

You could add a password if you want by linking under the mythweb directory with the following command (assuming you left the password intack on that directory):
Code:
ln -s /myth/gallery/ /var/www/mythweb/MythGallery

Well, that certainly worked, and it was easy :)

But what I was hoping to do was be able to view my images in a thumbnail view as opposed to just a directory view. I suppose I could create a webpage and stick it in /myth/gallery/ is there any reason that wouldn't work? Or a betterway to accomplish this?

I assumed the above would force the use of the password I have setup for mythweb, but apparently it did not, can somebody point me in the direction to instructions to secure this?

Thanks

There are many programs/scripts already avaiable to generate a webpage of thumbnails.

It requires the password on my machine just like it should. Keep in mind if you view the "normal" mythweb page then view the MythGalery page in the same webbrowser window it wont ask for the password a second time. Apache sees everything under /var/www/mythweb as the same.
