htaccess Problem

[beno]

Hi;
I've created a file like this:

htpasswd -c password.file webmaster
htpasswd password.file steve

and now I have this file:

/home/httpd/cgi/client/password.file

Then I go here:

/home/httpd/vhosts/client/Store/maint

and create this file:

.htaccess

with these contents:

AuthUserFile /home/httpd/cgi/client/password.file
AuthName "Please Authenticate"
AuthType Basic
<Limit GET>
require user webmaster steve
</Limit>

I try to surf to the dir but I get Error 403: Permission Denied. It doesn't request authentication. Furthermore, when I completely remove the .htaccess file from the dir I *still* can't surf to the dir! I've tried to wipe out my temporary Internet files and history in my browser, but it does no good. What on earth is going on?!
TIA,
beno
