OK I am trying to implement a members area for mikesouth.com which uses wordpress on the front end (not in the members aresa)

when I make the call to mikesouth.com/newmembers/index.htm everything works fine

UNTILL I add the .htaccess file Its been stripped to this

AuthUserFile /home/xxxsouth/public_html/mikesouth/cgi-bin/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName Members
AuthType Basic

require valid-user

Ok pretty simple .htpasswd exists in that hardcoded directory and is readable

except wordpress is returning a 404 error, it doesnt display the dialogue login box that it should and it displays the 404 within wordpress (try it if you like) which I actually expect

what I dont understand is whyits not displaying the login

I can provide ssh for anyone willing to help

Thanks
