You mean a password for ftp, or for http?

For http. I want to protect one folder.

Put something like this into your .htaccess file:

AuthType Basic
AuthName "Members Only"
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
<limit GET PUT POST>
require valid-user
</limit>

Then create .htpasswd with the htpasswd tool. See

man htpasswd
