Are you sure that's the right directory? On Fedora which I assume
would be similar, the htpasswd file goes in /etc/Backuppc.
It needs to be wherever the apache config file says it should be, for
me it's in /etc/httpd/conf.d/BackupPC.conf
It used to be in a file called httpd and probably is on yours,
however, I recently upgraded to Fedora 15 and now it seems they've
renamed it to a file called "apache.users", either way, it's going to
look for the file wherever the "AuthUserFile" directive in the
configurations says.
