Like I had mentioned below, the default Redhat build has no problem with
the .htaccess file but the OPKG version isn't working and I can't find
why. I've included the lines you mentioned just for verification.
# local configuration files
AccessFileName .htaccess
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
# Satisfy All
</Files>

Hello John,
Sorry for the delay. I've never installed mod_access, but I do know that
the
OpenPKG 2.0 (and earlier as well) apache package does offer .htaccess
and
.htpasswd file based authentication.
Please check to make sure that 'AccessFileName .htaccess' in your
/opt/opkg/2.0/etc/apache/apache.base file is there. That apache.base
shouldn't ever be changed, but the apache.conf can contain your personal
server configuration.
I wonder just what goes wrong with your server that leads you to believe
that this file based authentication is not working properly?
