You need to set Apache up to authenticate you.  My section of
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

<Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride All
    Options ExecCGI
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    AuthName "BackupPC_Admin"
    AuthType Basic
    AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/passwd
    require valid-user
</Directory>
