The template, being a PSD, needs to be sliced into individual images/sections that you can then maniulate with the code DreamWeaver will help you produce.
Password protection is best done using PHP and then either session cookies or, if you don't like cookies, simply using the Session ID, though the later can be hijacked. I tend to use a tertiary level and also check the IP address in connection with the session ID, as if this changes the system can instantly recognise a hijack and kick people out of the system, even logging the IP of the hijack attempt.
All this may sound fairly complex, but in actuality, once you know what you are doing it becomes second nature.
Your first step, before you start thinking about anything else, is cutting your template up and then reassembling it within DreamWeaver via HTML. As you have a PSD I assume you have PhotoShop, so cutting it up shouldn't present too many problems.
If I can help, give me a shout, but I can promise a rapid response as I have 8 sites to work on at present and that keeps me kinda busy.
Good luck!
