Is spring break over?  Apparently no one knows how to authenticate a user to
the BQ alias file, because there hasn't been one answer to a seemingly easy
question.  Please help...

Subject: .htaccess User Authentication

I have a directory on my server I want to password protect.  I have an
.htaccess file in the directory that looks like this:

#Basic configuration for any users:
AuthAuthoritative On
AuthType Basic
AuthName Your_Eyes_only
AuthExternal pwauth
require valid-user

It doesn't work.  

What should this file look like if I wanted to only allow authenticated
users from the BQ machine?

What should it look like if I only wanted to validate the administrative
user of the BQ machine?
