can't password protect a file but can a directory

[phil curb <jswordtestem@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I can't get b.htm to be password protected.

I can put directives AuthType, AuthName, AuthUserFile, Require..  In <directory..>  and get the directory password protected.

But I want the directory to not be password protected, and for just a file (b.htm) to be password protected but i'm having no luck in my attempts

here are some extracts from my httpd.conf file


<Directory "C:/apachefiles">

#AuthUserFile "C:/Program Files/Apache Software #Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/pfile"
#AuthType Basic
#AuthName "My Secret Page"

    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

    AllowOverride None

    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all

</Directory>



<FilesMatch "^\.ht">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
    Satisfy All
</FilesMatch>

<FilesMatch "b\.htm">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthUserFile "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/pfile"
Require user barny
</FilesMatch>

<Files "b.htm">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "My Secret Page"
AuthUserFile "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/pfile"
Require user barny
</Files>

<Files "C:/apachefiles/b.htm">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthUserFile "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/pfile"
Require user barny
</Files>
