Here's a setup I'm using:

in the host config

<Directory path-to-your-src-dir>
         AuthType Basic
         AuthName Source
         AuthUserFile /xxx...xxx/.htpasswd
         AuthGroupFile /xxx...xxx/.htgroup

         Options +Indexes
         DirectoryIndex index.html
         AllowOverride All
         DAV on
</Directory>

and in each repository directory's .htaccess file
Depending on whether you want universal read and/or/write you need to 
en- or disable the limit directive on GET and/or PUT.

Options +Indexes
<LimitExcept PUT GET>
         Deny from all
</LimitExcept>
#<Limit GET>
         #Require group a-group-from-htgroup
#</Limit>
<Limit PUT>
         Require group a-group-from-htgroup
</Limit>


If someone has a simpler setup I'm all ears :-)

Michael
