Re[4]: Limit POST problem (fwd)

I was wondering if you could please forward this on to someone who
might know. I would really appreciate it. The documentation on this
is somewhat vague, but it from I can tell, it should work. I am
pretty much stuck at this point.
Again, here is the problem:
I want to limit posting so that when someone hits the Submit button
to post to the form, they are prompted for a password. Everyone
should be able to see (GET) the page, but only the people with
passwords should be able to post. We have an .htaccess file in the
directory that does not seemto be working:
AuthUserFile /usr/local/http/ess/conf/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /usr/local/http/ess/conf/.htgroup
AuthName ISP Registration
AuthType Basic
<Limit POST>
require valid-user
</Limit>
Thanks for your help!
