Apache 1.3.3 does not accept in the .htaccess file
Require username1 username1 etc...
Apache 1.3.3 does accept
Require valid-user <--- this worked for me
It was also suggested this might work ( i did not try this one )
Require user username1

We are running a internal web server (Apache 1.3.3) on a
ultra sparc (solaris 2.6) for internal Docs, performance graphs,etc...
The web server works fine, except we try to password protect
a directory. The same setup works fine on three different Linux
machines.
