Several ways: If on a Unix-based server, you can modify the directory permissions for your website to allow access to certain users on the system. The best way, however, is to code the site in a scripting language such as PHP, then store usernames and passwords in a database; when a user requests a page, they are prompted for a password, and then their username and password is checked against the database so as to allow access.
