[users@httpd] Password protecting directories

[ba...@mediageneral.com]

Hi,
I'm having a problem password protecting certain directories on my webserver.
Everything was working until I started working with AuthGroupFile
I've included a copy of the error message, httpd.conf code and my group file
info....

[Thu Apr 10 13:03:03 2003] [crit] [client 12.5.1.207] configuration error:
couldn't check access.  No groups file?: /sidebar


<Directory /u01/mgfs/mgfsbizpage/sidebar>
    Options FollowSymLinks Includes
    #AllowOverride None
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Restricted Sidebar Files"
    AuthUserFile /u01/mgfs/mgfsbizpage/.htpasswd
    AuthGroupFile /u01/mgfs/mgfsbizpage/sidebargroup.txt
    Require group sidebargroup
</Directory>

This file is named sidebargroup.txt
