Which directory are you in when you do this? And you are sure there are no
other .htaccess files above or below this in the webcal directory?
| Cat /var/www/cgi-bin/webcal/protected/.htaccess shows
| AuthUserFile /var/webcal/.htpasswd
| AuthName WebCal
| AuthType Basic
| require valid-user
require valid-user admin userX userY
My require line has a list of the users I require a password for. valid-user
may be a shorthand, but I don't seem to use it. I list the user names directly.
Nothing in your apache log files?
