Well I missed that you were setting the ibay to:
"Entire Internet (password required outside local network)"
This setting basically says 'lets have no security internally'. If you
had chosen:
"Entire Internet (password required)" it will work.
All you are experiencing is a combination of 'the last one that hits
enter wins' and 'some statements superscede others', regardless of
whether Override is on. A good Apache book or a visit to the Apache site
may help you.
As a personal note, I do not like to use "password required outside local
network". The reason for this is users who do not 'see and use' a
password when in the office will never remember how to connect when out
of the office. Again, just my personal preference.
