I have not try this, but seems a bit troublesome as most of ISPs will not allow you to
add/change their httpd.conf (except virtual server or dedicated which are very
expensive). Will try with .htaccess today;

I do mine by inserting something like the following in httpd.conf:
<Location /servlets/<whateverzone>>
Options None
AllowOverride AuthConfig
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/security/<whateverzone>/users
AuthGroupFile /usr/local/apache/sercurity/<whateverzone>/groups
AuthName "Secure Servlets In <whateverzone>"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
</Location>
I thought that .htaccess didn't work? Anyway, the above works for me.
Note: We need to all thank jon for being so responsive, even with the
constant frustration of referring people to the FAQ. Thanks!
