Apache2 htaccess problem

I'm trying to setup a website that you need a password to access and want to use .htaccess to restrict access. But It's pretty much ignoring the script. I'm using a default lamp configuration, with default scripts.

My (/var/www/).htaccess script is:

Code:

AuthType Basic

AuthName "My Server"

AuthUserFile /var/.htpasswd

require user john

Thanks,

gilead

Are you getting anything in the Apache access/error logs when you access those pages?

Try the following:

chmod 777 .htaccess (If you haven't already)

In httpd.conf, made sure AllowOverride is All for /var/www (I think that's what I did)

I added two virtual host entry's into the apache2.conf and that immediately took care of my problem.
