[ale] apache2 .htaccess?

[Robert L. Harris]

It can't cache the password as it's never asked me for a password to
cache.

Thus spake Adrin (haswes at mindspring.com):

> 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.
