AOA,

technique but it not works for me

AuthName "test"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /path to file/.htpasswd

require valid-user

I think your server is not permitting AuthConfig in .htaccess.

Try with this -

<Directory <docroot> >

AllowOverride +AuthConfig

</Directory>

Then I think it should work.
