Author help with authentication in the main config file

I am trying to require authentication for a directory.

I put:
<Directory /home/rjl/public_html/resume/private>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Password Required"
AuthUserFile /www_password.file
</Directory>

in the main config file but nothing is logged and I am not asked for a
userid/password.

Look up the require directive in the Apache manual
