I should have mentioned. It's a bad idea to have your password files under
your Document Root. Store them outside of it for security, although this
isn't why you are having a problem.
In the previous configuration I sent, the "order deny,allow" etc statements
aren't strictly necessary, but are useful if you plan to give users on
specific IP numbers or specific domains access to your server without a
username and password. ie, you can have
deny from all
allow from "IP", "Domain"
etc (without the quotes).
