edit your httpd.conf, under the "#Controls who can get stuff from this
server." add this following
<Directory /usr/local/apache/htdocs/private>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
Then Edit your .htaccess
AuthName "Ask Tech for access"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/htdocs/private/.htpasswd
<Limit GET PUT>
order deny,allow
deny from all
require user tech
satisfy any
</Limit>
Then use ./htpasswd -c /usr/local/apache/htdocs/private tech
HTH.
