Diego,

Actually I'm trying to lock the file down. But before I try I want to
verify that my test to see if the lock down works before I try to lock it
down.

I recently got dinged on a Qualys report with:
File .htaccess Accessible
THREAT:
.htaccess contains authentication information.
IMPACT:
Unauthorized users can gather authentication information from this file.
SOLUTION:
Change the Apache configuration so the .htaccess file cannot be accessed
via the Internet.
