OK, starting from scratch this morning,
here is the .htaccess file I am using which is inside of the
/home/LinuxAccountName/www directory:
<Directory "/home/LinuxAccountName/www">Options NoneAuthName "UserNameIUsedToCreatePasswordWith"AuthType BasicAuthUserFile /home/LinuxAccountName/.htpasswdRequire valid-user</Directory>
www above refers to the root or web directory - the lowest or first or base
directory that is web accessable.
And, this is the error I am getting from my httpd error log for this domain:
[Sun Apr 20 07:47:40 2008] [alert] [client 75.46.110.14] /home/LinuxAccountName/.htaccess: <Directory not allowed here

Remove the <Directory> tag.. a .htaccess file is placed inside a <Directory> tag for the folder it is in automatically..

Consequentially, your .htaccess looks like this to apache:
<Directory /home/user/www>
	<Directory /home/user/www>
		...
	</Directory>
</Directory>
