I removed the <Directory> section from my <VirtualHost> and added this above
it all:
<Location "/drives/a/webapps/intranet1">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "protected.zeus.intranet1"
AuthUserFile /drives/a/webapps/.intranet1_passwd
</Location>
After restarting the servers the virtual host that points to
"/drives/a/webapps/intranet1" no longer requires any authentication on the
static or dynamic content.
Any other ideas?
