When I try to access this directory https://www.example.com/private/

Instead of getting the login dialog, I get the Forbidden error message :

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /private/ on this server.

The virtual host contains :

<Directory "/etc/apache/htdocs/private">
        Order allow,deny
        AuthName "private"
        AuthType Basic
        AuthUserFile /etc/apache/users
        AuthGroupFile /etc/apache/groups
<Limit GET HEAD OPTIONS CONNECT POST PROPFIND PUT DELETE PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK>
                Require user  robert tommy
        </Limit>
        <Limit GET HEAD OPTIONS CONNECT POST>
                Require group  sales maintenance
        </Limit>
</Directory>


httpd.conf is set for :

User www
Group www

With access and permissions set to :

sudo chown -R www:www /etc/apache/htdocs
sudo chmod -R 755 /etc/apache/htdocs

The error log shows :

[Thu Jun 14 20:51:16 2007] [notice] Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin) mod_ssl/ 2.8.24 OpenSSL/0.9.7l PHP/4.4.4 configured -- resuming normal operations

Any ideas ?
