Now .htaccess is:
Code:
########## Start - Sekcja Uwierzytelnienie
AuthUserFile /var/auth/user/.htpasswd
## gdy nie stworzono pliku opisu grup umiesc
#AuthGroupFile /dev/null
## albo - jesli stworzono plik opisu grup - odkomentuj i umiesc
#AuthGroupFile /var/auth/user/.htgroups    #jesli stworzono
AuthName "Obszar chroniony"
AuthType Basic
# uzyj linii ponizej gdy jest plik opisu grupy admini (nazwa przykladowa)
#require group admini
# albo zakomentuj linie powyzej a odkomentuj i uzyj ponizszej, gdy brak pliku o$
Require valid-user
########## Koniec - Sekcja Uwierzytelnienie

Still get:
Code:
[Tue Dec 16 20:14:44 2014] [error] [client 192.168.200.17] user user: authentication failure for "/~user/private_html": Password Mismatch

Is apache allowed to read /var/auth/user ? What if you put the auth files inside public_html ?

I moved .htpasswd to private_html where .htaccess is.

Still get:
Code:
