[ale] .htaccess



Now that I've been playing around with Apache on our support server I'm
wanting to close some directories via .htaccess.

I've done the following

1.  Added .htaccess to ~user/directory_to_hide/.htaccess

AuthUserFile .htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Books"

AuthType Basic

<Limit GET>
order deny,allow
require valid-user
</Limit>

2.  I've created ~user/directory_to_hide/.htpasswd
user:password


The problem I have is that Apache seems to ignore this file

Do I need to modify the conf file to tell Apache to respect these?
