apache2 authorization failing under edgy

[Jeremiah Foster]

Hello all,

I am trying to do some password protection with apache2 under edgy and
it is failing. I suspect it is not a bug, however this works when I use
apache-perl. So why does the following fail in apache2 (in
sites-enabled/default) when it works in apache-perl?

  <Directory /var/www/cgi-bin/auth/>
        AllowOverride AuthConfig
         AuthType Basic
         AuthName "Super Secret"
         AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/passwd/passwords
         Require user jeremiah
         Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>

Thanks
