Very Computer

Hi there!

Here is a small problem i encoutner:
i have a Apache Server, with directory /admin that is restricted to user
webmaster
Recently, i have installed in this dir a subdir containing a program
that also interested the user root ( unix machine admininstrator).
(btw. this app is Big brother, you are strongly invited to try it )
In this way  i created him a http identity "root", with a pass.
I've also modified the access.conf:

# only webmaster access
<Directory /home/httpd/htdocs/admin>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
        AuthName Webmaster
    AllowOverride None
        <Limit GET>
                require user web
        </Limit>
</Directory>

# webmaster AND root access
<Directory /home/httpd/htdocs/admin/bb>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
        AuthName Webmaster or Admin
    AllowOverride None
        <Limit GET>
                require user root web
        </Limit>
</Directory>

But when i (web) try to connect to bb,;apcahe ask for my pass *twice* .
I guessed that Apcahe check the access for both directories.
I tried a few other configs, but none worked.

Any Apache Guru that knows how to fix that ?

I'm managing a Web-server using Apache 1.1.3 (RedHat 4.2), and i have to
protect one directory with basic text protection. I have done a .htaccess
which it seems to work, and a .htpasswd with the htpasswd program.

When i try to access the page the server asks for the user and the passwd,
but it never let's me going on. It always says that the passwd is
incorrect.

Please i need some help, maybe i have to make changes in the access.conf,
so i need some help on that.

Thanks in advance

P.D.: Sorry for the english. :(
