Authentication

Hello again ;)

I just took myself some free time to work on my cherokee
install. What 
I want to archieve is to password-protect a directory using
plain 
authentication. Therefore I tried using the examples in the
wiki 
adjusted to my needs in the domain configuration. However, I
don't seem 
to be able to get a directory password protected.

This is what my configuration looks like:

Server domain123.de{
         DocumentRoot /var/www/domain123
         DirectoryIndex index.html,index.php
         Directory / {
                 Handler common
         }
         Directory /sicher {
                 Handler common
                 Auth Basic, Digest {
                         Method plain {
                                 PasswdFile
/var/www/secure/secure.pwd
                         }
                 }
         }
         Extension php, php4 {
                 Handler phpcgi
         }
}

I have created the "secure"-directory, chowned it
to the respective 
user and group, gave cherokee enough rights to read and
write to the 
directory but whenever I have restarted cherokee and try to
access the 
secured directory, the  only message I get using Firefox is:

401 Authorization Required
This server could not verify that you are authorized to
access the 
document requested. Either you supplied the wrong
credentials (e.g., 
bad password), or your browser doesn't understand how to
supply the 
credentials required.

I didn't even have the possibility to supply my credentials.
I know 
that I've missed something, but I simply can't figure out
what. Thus I 
need your help
