Thanks,

OK I removed the directory tag & got a different error, now the contents of .htaccess file is this:

Options None
AuthName "UserNameCreatedFor.htpasswd"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/user/.htpasswd
Require valid-user

Error log for my request is here:

[Sun Apr 20 19:57:05 2008] [alert] [client 12.34.567.89] /home/user/www/.htaccess: Options not allowed here

And error I got in web browser is here:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
