yes you can do it with a username and password, the only way i know how to do it is with a php login system, im not sure how to do it with a website builder. If you want a good log in system i would suggest http://evolt.org/node/60384. and then not allow anyone unless they are logged in.

Good Luck divebuddha!

Do you want multiple usernames and passwords to work to login or a single username/password combination?

Quick and simple:

cPanel --> Security --> Password Protect Directories

Make one username/password combination and send to members

You can make a separate FTP or Webdisk account using your cPanel that allows people to connect to just a particular folder. Then, the people that want to edit the files on the specified folder can use their own FTP or Webdisk client to make changes.

As you are using the site builder, it might get difficult, but I'll try to see what I can find.
