Here's mine that works:

AuthPAM_Enabled off
Options -Indexes
AuthUserFile /home/sites/site42/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Corporate ID"
AuthType Basic
<Limit GET PUT POST>
require valid-user
</Limit>

Notice I have the .htpasswd above the /web directory so no one can browse to
it.

What kind of error? Is it generated by the script, or is it the standard
page from the RaQ for that error code?

Which script?

Are you sure all the paths in the script are correct?

I'm using http://www.cgi-factory.com htpasswd.pl for a client.
