Not completely sure what you're asking, but it sounds like you want
to set up some basic user authentication. In the <VirtualHost> where
you're secure (e.g., <VirtualHost _default_:443>), set up your
per-directory (or per-host, I guess) authentication:
<Directory /usr/local/apache/htdocs/some_private_dir>
# Require the correct netblock AND basic auth
Satisfy all
# Network Access Control
Order allow,deny
Allow from 10.1.0.0/16
# HTTP Basic Authentication
AuthType basic
AuthName "My Private Directory"
AuthUserFile conf/passwd_file_i_made_with_htpasswd.txt
Require valid-user
</Directory>
If you don't need network control too, just remove the 'Satisfy',
'Order', and 'Allow' directives.
HTH,
Scott
