I would have thought that you don't need to password protect the domain, as you can control access to the domain through user privielges.

yes but i want to create a domain and keep it as a backup of my current working domain.

Password protection will ensure that I donot accidently modify the backup domain

No. You cannot password protect a Domain. But if you are really worried about accidently modifying the backup Domain then you should be going for an alternative method.

The alternative way is, You know the elements of a Domain (HTML doc, fex, KMD, STY File etc..) Just copy those elements of the Domain and check it into clear case.

Or, when copying the domain as a backup, change the file attributes (and/or the directory) to be read only. It is not a real password protected thing, but it will signal change attempts.
