[ale] Problems with "browsing" apache protected folders

All,

I have been struggling with RedHat 9, Apache2, and password protected folders under the document root.  

The good:  I can password selected directories/folders via the Directory directive in httpd.conf.  I can type in the appropriate URL and a password popup appears.

The bad:  With apache 1.3.x I could select the appropriate URL pointing to a folder  under the document root system and "browse" down the directory system until I selected the password protected folder.  Double clicking on the password protected folder resulted in a password popup.  With apache 2 I can still browse but I CAN NO LONGER "SEE" THE PROTECTED FOLDER.  IT IS INVISIBLE!   If I remove/comment the Directory directive, I can now "see" the now unprotected folder.

I am stumped.  A complication is that I am running (successfully) a virtual server.  Virtual 1 is on port 80.  Virtual 2 is port 727.  Apache specified I had to create two virtual servers, no one for the 727 port.

Below is my httpd.conf.  I have cross posted to the apache configuration group.

Any help would be appreciated.

John
