Must be in other order:
AuthName “Protected Content”
AuthType Basic

order allow,deny

#Comment
allow from 255.255.255.255
deny from all

Apache stop after first match – if this is Deny, this will be forbid for ever

Also is suitable “allow from 192.168.0 (last octet from network will be permited)

BUT .htaccess are useful – you must prefer rules in httpd.conf because in .conf is MUCH MUCH faster !
