There are a couple of things about your config which raised my eyebrows: - I noticed you have "index.cgi" in your DirectoryIndex list. Are you sure the index files in the subdirs are accessed via index.shtml? That is, they're not index.cgi, by any chance? (trying to generate SSI directives using a CGI script is difficult because of the order in which data is processed). - You have FollowSymLinks as an option. Does this mean some resources are actually at the end of a symbolic link? If so, make sure the end of the link (the real file) is not in a protected dir. - Is there anything in the .htaccess files *apart from* the Auth directives? Any more Options, for example (redefining Options in a more specific context can wipe out earlier settings). > > There are two sub-dirs of www - LoanDept and Application.

Once I copy > LoanDept/.htaccess to Application/.htaccess then > Application/index.shtml works. This sounds like Application/index.shtml needs a resource in LoanDept to work. But if LoanDept is protected, it can't get it (check in the error log to see what is being denied). When you put the same protection on Application, you force the browser to present the credentials so then the resource in LoanDept becomes available. I think your setup is a little more complicated than you have explained so far - have another look at it and try to work out exactly how each resource is supposed to come together.
