cgi_bin, htaccess problem

[Kymberly]

Hi people,
I am haveing problems with a cgi-bin script & .htaccess.
The script is "Autorank" for web site ranking.
apache 2.0, redhat 8 & virtual hosting the site.

I finally got the the script to install without errors, however when I go to the setup.cgi (which is password protected) I get the error" Your server does not have .htaccess password protection enabled"
I thought I did.



I went in the "httpd.conf"
changed
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>

to

<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride AuthConfig
</Directory>

restarted apache & still get the error message " Your server does not have .htaccess password protection enabled"

I been trying for the last few days to get this working, any help or suggestions greatly appreciated :)

I found my problem, I missed one of the "AllowOverride AuthConfig" directives in httpd.conf
