Hello everyone,

I am trying to get .htaccess to work. I have the .htaccess file in the directory I want protected but it isn't working. Here is the contents of my .htaccess file...

Code:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "SecretDirectory"
AuthUserFile /home/jason/.htpasswd

<Limit GET>
require valid-user
</Limit>


I am using apache 2.2.16. Anyone know how to get it working?

I changed

Code:
AllowOverride None


to

Code:
AllowOverride All
