It wasn't difficult to check - just one click.
The "Pembers" website is just raw HTML, therefore as it's not served via his CMS (Wordpress), the only means of restricting access would be via Apache - usually a .htaccess file. These are a bit of a PITA to users as they pop up a dialogue which is modal to the browser. The usernames and passwords are stored in a text file on the server, and the only way to manage this file AFAIK is manually - it would be completely separate from the user management that is part of Wordpress. This method is relatively rare these days as it's awkward for users and web admins alike, and it's not all that secure either (unless you run the site as HTTPS). Here's an example: http://www.notonyourtelly.co.uk/blog/
