No dialog for user/password with .htaccess on apache 1.3.22 for Windows

Hello

I never receive the dialog for the username and password, what is wrong?
This is my actual configuration.

***** httpd.conf *****
#
# This controls which options the .htaccess files in directories can
# override. Can also be "All", or any combination of "Options", "FileInfo",
# "AuthConfig", and "Limit"
#
# AllowOverride None
AllowOverride AuthConfig

***** .htaccess *****
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile "d:/web/.htpasswd"
AuthName "Member Area"

<limit GET POST>
require valid-user
</limit>


***** .htpasswd *****
myname:mypassword

..htaccess is located in the directory d:/web/xyz/intern/.htpasswd and this
is also the protected directory.

Did you restart the server after making changes to httpd.conf file. You
must restart the webserver after you make changes to the conf file for
the webserver to act upon those changes. ;;)

what do you mean "protected" here? If you meant having also
Access-control other than the user credentials on this directory, you
may also want to look at "Satisfy" directive.

---- Yes it is inside of httpd.conf.

My meaning was that only the .htaccess file must be inside the directory
that should be password protectet.

Or is it necessary to have for each protected directory a additional entry
insysde of httpd.conf like the following?

#
# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
#
<Directory "d:/web/xyz/intern/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Mike

Hi

I added the following entry to httpd.conf

# New entry for xyz
<Directory "C:/web/xyz/intern">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride AuthConfig
</Directory>

Now it works
Thanks for your hint

Mike
