Kings,
Now I am thinking it could be an Apache issue. I think
the problem is that Apache is verifying the identity of
the user that is accessing the file, even though they just
typed the login/password from another program. The server
may be just following the instructions in the config file,
and its not generalizing the login/password to the IP address.

Login/password are one way to restrict access to directories.
Other techniques include:
domain name
IP address (full or partial)
I haven't tried these other techniques, but if you can define
some users through domain name or IP then the login/password
may not be necessary.
