Create a text file called .htaccess, just as you've been doing. But
this time provide a valid URL for the custom error pages. The URLs
listed above just redirect the surfer to the root directory for
directbloomms.com. ie

ErrorDocument 404 http://www.directblooms.com/stuff/404.html

	I'd suggest starting with just one simple .htaccess file in
which you do nothing more than the error document. Then save it and
do another to get your auth scheme working. Then when you have both
pieces working put try them together. If it works then you're done
and if it doesn't you'll at least know where to focus your
debugging efforts.

	Additionally, you can find some good solid help on this at:
