I am running Debian. I have to add "Allow from 192.168.1"
to /etc/apache2/conf.d/mythweb.conf to access MythWeb when using
computers on the local network. This is the error message I get:

----
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster at localhost and inform
them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done
that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error
log.

The section in the conf file that deals with the authentication is:

        AuthType           Digest
        AuthName           "MythTV"
        AuthUserFile       /etc/mythweb.password.digest
        Require            valid-user
        BrowserMatch       "MSIE"  AuthDigestEnableQueryStringHack=On
        Order              allow,deny
        #Allow from 192.168.1
        Satisfy            any

I have even done

mythtv-debian:~# chown www-data:www-data /etc/mythweb.password.digest
mythtv-debian:~# chmod 640 /etc/mythweb.password.digest

When I Allow from 192.168.1, I can access it. What am I doing wrong?
