[cobalt-users] .htaccess and htpasswd problem

["Eric Winchell" <e@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have transferred an htpasswd file from another server to a RAQ3 (and the
rest of the site for that matter) hoping it would be possible to keep the
current login/passwords protecting the member-only directory. At first I
thought maybe the rejection was because the htpasswd was created on another
box, but I added an account to htpasswd on the RAQ3 only to find it still
rejects the login. After double checking
/home/sites/home/web/cgi-bin/am/htpasswd, it did have the new line. I'm not
sure what other info to provide... here's the .htaccess:

AuthUserFile /home/sites/home/web/cgi-bin/am/htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Private Area"
ErrorDocument 401 /home/sites/home/web/401.html

<LIMIT GET POST>
require valid-user
</LIMIT>


Maybe it's a permissions problem? Any help would be appreciated.
