Andrew, Could this be a text vs. binary issue? I'm grasping at straws here... It's good that you've moved everything to the local disk - it helps to eliminate as many variables as possible. Did you get an authenticated access webpage (.html, as opposed to a CGI script) working? Can you initially create the user file in the directory where you're trying to set up authentication (for testing purposes)? Can you show the output of "ls -la" in that directory?
