You might need to edit your /etc/httpd/conf/access.conf file to say
"AllowOverride All" instead of 'AllowOverride None' down at the htaccess
configuration section..  Try changing it from what you have currently..

After you edit that, you'll have to restart apache:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart

Also, same kind of thing was driving me crazy one day.. then i realized
that since i had copied the .htaccess and .htpasswd from another 'site' on
the raq, i hadn't changed the 'sitex' line in the .htaccess.. i had looked
at it, but didn't register that it was pointing to the wrong dir..

Hope this helps a little..

Rob
