I just finished a fresh install on ubuntu 6.06 and put the following at
the end of my /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default file (virtial host
section).

    Alias /backuppc/ "/usr/local/BackupPC/cgi-bin/"
    <Directory /usr/local/BackupPC/cgi-bin/>
        AllowOverride None

        Options ExecCGI FollowSymlinks
        AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
        DirectoryIndex index.cgi

        AuthGroupFile /etc/BackupPC/htgroup
        AuthUserFile /etc/BackupPC/htpasswd
        AuthType basic
        AuthName "BackupPC admin"
        require valid-user
    </Directory>

I also created a symlink index.cgi -> BackupPC_Admin in the cgi directory
and put the user www-data into group backuppc.
