[SOLVED] .htaccess password protection does not show up

Hello,

i used Dynamic Drive: .htaccess password generator to generate code for .htaccess and .htpasswd

and i pasted it into my folder

but its not protected, no password prompt

htaccess

Code:

AuthName "Restricted Area"

AuthType Basic

AuthUserFile /home/mysite/.htpasswd

AuthGroupFile /dev/null

require valid-user

htpasswd

Code:

sss:iijBraotwn1Mg

/home/mysite/.htpasswd i made double sure its correct folder.

here it is

Code:

[root@vps munin]# pwd

/var/www/munin

[root@vps munin]# ls -la
