I'm convinced Apache 2.0.53 doesn't work as advertised in the docs when
you try to get Basic Auth working without a .htaccess file.
I can get it to request a userid and password with AllowOverride
AuthConfig and using a .htaccess file.
Which brings me to a followup question ...
It doesn't like the passwords in the password file. They work fine under
Apache 1.3 on my ISP's Linux server. I used htpasswd to create the
passwords.
Is there way to force Apache2 to use DES or whatever Apache 1.3 is
comfortable with?
Thanks for being there

Does apache2ctl confirm that httpd actually reads that file on startup?
Depends on how httpd normally gets started. If it is started using
apache2ctl, then that is a good indication.
OK - on investigation it ain't apachectl. It is httpd. I ran httpd -t
and it complained about FooBar Nonsense too.
So - we are definitely reading the conf files. That means ...
1. I'm not reaching the right directory - Yes I am. 100% sure.
2. Some sort of caching? 100% no way. I've tried four different browsers
on three different machines.
3. Apache is reading the conf but ignoring the directive for some reason
What else do I need for Basic Auth to work?
As it happens, I have subversion running via apache on that machine and
when I access it from a foreign machine it asks me to authenticate. I
have copied subversion.conf below. Maybe I should copy that?
Modules? I deleted all files in /etc/apache2/sysconfig.d and restarted
the computer whereupon we got a brand-new loadmodule.conf ...
