It's always the same mistake... *sigh*
By the time rule translation reaches:
> Protect /local/Web/protect/* SECRET
you haven't yet mapped virtual URLs to the physical filesystem.
E.g. you have something like this:
Protect /local/Web/protect/* SECRET
Pass /* /local/Web/*
What you *should* have is either:
Protect /protect/* SECRET
Pass /* /local/Web/*
or:
Map /* /local/Web/*
Protect /local/Web/protect/* SECRET
Pass /*
(or the last line can read also:
Pass /local/Web/*
but all that ever reaches it is already of form /local/Web/* so /* is
just fine, too.)
