Having problems with .htaccess

[Guest_imported]

I recently downloaded and installed Apache on my home computer so that I could test cgi and php stuff at home (Win 98 OS) and then apply them to my work (Linux OS). I figured trying it in windows would be a new experience. Anyway, I can't seem to get the .htaccess files to work properly. I created the password file, and the .htaccess file but still no pop up verification box. Is there something wrong with Windows 98? Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

You could check that there is no conflicting 'AllowOverride None' statement in http.conf. Depending on context, that could prevent apache even looking for an .htaccess file .

Also, if you put 'Satisfy Any' try 'Satisfy All' instead.

Hope this helps
