You may be intending to use <Location>; <Directory> is for an absolute filesystem path, and <Location> is for a URL. I have a similar version working (mine allowing unauth for localhost, and require auth for others) using <Location>: <Location /portal> AuthName [Name] AuthType Basic AuthUserFile [htpasswd] Require valid-user Order allow,deny Allow from 127.0.0.1 Satisfy any Options -Indexes </Location> I don't know if it even works for <Directory>.
