Well, my web host got bought out. (They're an "adult hosting" site now, but whatever.) But apparently password-protecting a directory is beyond them nowadays. So until I get this figured out or get the site moved there will only be updates when I log into phpMyAdmin.
(Says the guy who hasn't updated since New Year's.)
Edit, 3/22 9:56 AM: And after a little jiggery-pokery today it works. Hooray for the home team.
