Can't you use the standard apache password stuff:

    <Directory /usr/local/www/data/>
        AuthUserFile "/usr/local/www/etc/htpasswd"
        AuthName "Something"
        AuthType Basic

        <Limit GET POST>
            Require valid-user
        </Limit>
    </Directory>

That will pop up a password dialog box on access.  Works in exactly
the same way for HTTPS as for HTTP.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
