 * I don’t know if anyone else has attempted this, but I am trying to create a password
   protection “section” of a website. I thought perhaps the sub-pages would all 
   follow in suit if you password protected the main page, but it doesn’t. Does 
   anyone know of a way to do this so I don’t have to individually update/change
   passwords for all the pages under one page category?

 * How about a plugin, such Page Restriction, from the Codex [Plugins/Restriction](http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins/Restriction)
   list?
