[Zope] Apache .htaccess and zope

[hpinson at indepthl.com]

Hi.  Does anyone know if it is possible to password protect a zope 
folder running behind Apache with .htaccess.

Why would I want to do such a thing? I have a Plone 2 site running 
that I need to give selective access to, but those who get access 
must have complete permission to manage.  Normally I would do this by 
assigning folder permissions in Zope to a guest user, but Plone does 
not seem to like that.

htaccess is working on Apache.  What I have tried is dropping a 
.htaccess file in my zope site root (/http/site.org).  Apache does 
not seem to see this file after the rerewriterules, which I think is 
the problem.

I'd much rather do this in Zope directly.
