    Though it causes a bit of a performance penalty, a .htaccess file in a
    protected directory will resolve that problem.
    
    Make sure that the web server directory in the config file is set to:
    
    AllowOverride Limit AuthConfig
    
    Or
    
    AllowOverride All
    
    Then in the protected directory, /Library/WebServer/Documents/test, add a
    .htaccess file containing:
    
        Order deny,allow
        Deny from all
    
    I too would prefer apple to make it's modules available, but I think this is
    a good workaround.
