OK thanks, I tried again, this time I added to my virtualdomain .conf file the below, and I am still having the same problem... <Directory /home/mydirectory/www/awstats> AuthName "MembersOnly" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /home/mydirectory/.htpasswd Require user coder </Directory> Express yourself wherever you are.
