I'm not 100% sure but I think the basic root web directory on red hat is : /var/www/
This can be change in you apache configuration file: /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
DocumentRoot /var/www/
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
You have to edit this part and change the /var/www/ to you directory
and to you last point -- please run the command :
htpasswd -c /your/directory/.htpasswd glenn glenn
then you have to create a file .htaccess in you web server directory
and paste the following lines in your .htaccess (only change the /your/directory) parameter!
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Authetication"
AuthUserFile /your/derectory/.htpasswd
require valid-user
I hope that's all!

squid3_ncsa_auth
ncsa_auth(8) System Manager's Manual ncsa_auth(8)
NAME
ncsa_auth - NCSA httpd-style password file authentication helper for Squid
SYNOPSIS
ncsa_auth passwdfile
DESCRIPTION
ncsa_auth allows Squid to read and authenticate user and password information from an NCSA/Apache httpd-style password file when using
basic HTTP authentication.
The only parameter is the password file. It must have permissions to be read by the user that Squid is running as (cache_effective_user in
squid.conf).
This password file can be manipulated using htpasswd.
* MD5 - with optional salt and magic strings * DES - for passwords 8 characters or less in length
OPTIONS
Only specify the password file name.
EXAMPLE
ncsa_auth /etc/squid/squid.pass
SECURITY
ncsa_auth must have access to the password file to be executed.
KNOWN ISSUES
DES functionality (used by htpasswd by default) silently truncates passwords to 8 characters. Allowing login with password values shorter
than the one desired. This authenticator will reject login with long passwords when using DES.
