Did you set AllowOverride to allow this from .htaccess files? For access.conf, my first guess would be another conflicting <Directory> or <Location> section for the said directory floating around in your apache configuration. > AuthName "Bilderalbum" > AuthType Basic > AuthUserFile /etc/apache/htpasswd > require valid-user > > Of course, the entries in htpasswd are generated using htpasswd. You should nevertheless check the contents of /etc/apache/htpasswd, there has to be a line starting with "xxx:" (I would really like to know which kind of pix you have for a user called "xxx"). To check if the above statement is effective you can temporarily replace it by this one: Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from localhost Then give it a try with `lynx --dump http://localhost/...` and check your logs again.
