You are able to authenticate against the Unix Passwd file.  The
problem is that one of the Updates removed a line from the httpd.conf
file.  The AwStats Package from NuOnce Networks & the Webalizer Package
from PKGMaster.com both authenticate against the system.

Here the .htaccess file:

#Access file
order allow,deny
allow from all
require group site1
Authname WebStats
Authtype Basic
AuthAuthoritative off

This is the line that you need to make sure you have in your httpd.conf
file:

LoadModule pam_external_auth_module modules/mod_auth_pam_external.so

Thanks!
