htacces protected admin directory

[George Pauli]

Hello,

My testsite is at f2s.
I just made
.htaccess
.htpasswd

I uploaded .htpasswd to my rootdirectory
and .htpaccess to the directory admin


Is this the correct way of naming the files (just .htaccess)?

The files when uploaded don't show up in the directory (on site).

this is htaccess:
AuthUserFile /web/sites/nnn/user/www.mysite.f2s.com/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile/dev/null
AuthName 'Protected Admin zone'
AuthType Basic

<limit GET PUT POST>
require valid-user
</limit>

It made an internal server error so I cannot get in the directory admin anymore.

Any suggestions? What is going wrong? What did I (stupid me) do wrong?
Thanks.
