Help with .htaccess
I have recently installed the apache 1.3.23, but i seem to be having
trouble with getting authentication through .htaccess files to work...
I have read the documentation on this type of authentication and to my
understanding if I place it in a folder it should pop-up a password box
when going to that page through a web-browser. So I made a .htaccess file
through the touch command, then I edited it with vim with all the info it
claim to need from the documentation. I made it direct to a password file
and everything with some users I created. No matter what I've tried I can't
get the password dialog to come up when I access that folder...
If someone knows the answer or has a work-around to this please help.

Posting the actual contents of the .htaccess file
might help...

Looks fine to me. Is the directory & password file
readable & executable by all or at least Apache?
Hmmm, rereading your 1st post I see that the dialog
doesn't pop-up in the first place. If that is the
case then you need to edit your httpd.conf & change
AllowOverride None
to
AllowOverride All
or
AllowOverride AuthConfig

AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/passwd/password
Require user daphio

I have run htpassword, because if you actually read what I said you would
have noticed "I made it direct to a password file", I even made some users...

Perhaps you must include the lines in your httpd.conf; yes, I know. It
must run without it, but...
<Directory /path/to/your/dir>
AuthType ...
...
</Directory>
