Minor quibble. "Your /wp-admin is protected by Apache using .htaccess"

Posted on February 20, 2015

I’ve got a wordpress installation and when I log in at the command I get this useful message in the MOTD:

Your /wp-admin is protected by Apache using .htaccess credentials:
User: admin
Pass: <password>

Only, it’s not protected by .htaccess credentials. It’s protected in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf in a <DirectoryMatch ^.*/wp-admin/> directive.

All I’m saying is, there’s five minutes of my life I won’t get back puzzling over that mystery. Fix the message please?
