Why didn't you put the authentication here? Using .htaccess files is a
substitute for putting authentication into the httpd.conf file. It is only
intended for cases where you can not change httpd.conf itself.

Pick up the apache manual and build a test directory on your webserver and
see that you can get user authentication working on there following the
samples in the apache manual.

Once you figure it out you can translate the solution to the nagios
sections.

Untill you get the sample section working as shown on
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/auth.html there is little point in
trying anything else.

This is not a Nagios issue but an issue of you trying to understand your
apache server.
