Check to see if selinux is blocking Apache from reading you .htaccess file.
Example:
ls -aZ
-rwxr-xr-x root root system_u:object_r:*httpd_sys_content_t* .htaccess

Hello,
I'm using Apache/2.0.52 on Fedora Core 3. I've copied the configuration file of 
the previous apache's version on a Redhat, as I do everytime when upgrading to 
a new version of Apache (I configured only the new httpd.conf manually), and 
now the problem is that none of the security measures is working, I'm bypassing 
all of them (.htaccess and ip list specification).

The mod_access module is enabled.

In my httpd.conf, I have:

AllowOverride All

<Directory /www/html/directory/rzone>
       Order Allow,Deny
       Allow from  10.0.10.
       Deny from all
</Directory>



My .htaccess is:
AuthType Basic
AuthName Welcome
AuthUserFile /www/html/directory/rzone/.htmdp

<Limit GET POST>
       require valid-user

       Order Allow,Deny
       Allow from  10.0.10.
       Deny from all
</Limit>

When I was desprate, I've configured the access file as follow:

Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all

and I still have access to the web site.

Any idea ?
