[ale] apache2 .htaccess?

[Adrin]

Make sure you close your browser before each test.  Some browser will also cache the
password.
There is also setting in the http.conf that could be overriding your <directory>
You may want to make sure that

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>

exist in the http.conf  and that nothing else resets this setting.

I also have the setting

<Files ~ "^\.htaccess">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
    Satisfy All
</Files>

Also in my http.conf

Just remember I am not a pro.
