Ok I found a problem in the config - I had the htaccess stuff set to
allowoverride none -
changed to AuthConfig now it asks me for a user/pass

but will not let any of the users in the .htpasswd file in. I get the error
as follows

[Tue Jul 29 22:08:21 2003] [error] [client 10.69.70.202] emg: not a valid

[Tue Jul 29 22:08:23 2003] [error] [client 10.69.70.202] emg: not a valid

Can someone explain what I have still not got right?
