Solved the problem... details follow:
There were 2 mistakes in the httpd.conf:
The first, and most serious one:
In
<IfModule mod_auth_mysql.c>
# MySQL server to connect to
Auth_MySQL_Info localhost username password
# default database
Auth_MySQL_General_DB http_auth
</IfModule>
I had neglected to change the username and password here to a
valid user/pass for the mysql server (duh)
The reason the server didn't ask for a user/pass when going to the
index.html file was in the <location> in the <virtualhost> which was
pointing to the wrong location: the default was /vsdadm, but I had
put everything in /vsd/vsdadm (relative to the server document root).
Thanks for the help everyone. (now... what was the problem again
with rebooting servers with the scripts ? :-))

(btw, in case anyone cares, all this was done with the admin
scripts on the host server, so not on a vs) (had too much problems
trying to get mysql and all apache mods on a vs)
