ok wth is going on htaccess
So setup htaccess/htpasswd like normal and for some reason the password's not working. No worries delete both files restart apache and should be good right. Nope everything is still asking for a password even after I rebooted the server and cleared out my browser cache.
Any idea's folks?

So your password ain't working?
Checked mod_security and firewall logs? May be they have blocked your IP for multiple failure?
Naw nothing like that saying verification of user id 'admin" not configured.. wonder if it's not using the password hash and something else
@FRCorey Is your AuthUserFile setting correct and using the full location?
Also, is your htpasswd file in the correct format? With the hashed password?
I removed both and it's still asking for passwords that's what I'm trying to figure out. no htaccess or htpassword anywhere in the directory
Figured it out. The directive was always there when munin is installed, however once you put in a .htaccess file it activated the directive that exists in /etc/httpd/conf.d/munin.conf commenting out the auth lines there fixed the issue. Now to try again
sometimes it's a caching issue but in the ISP side, so if I get the same (I update but it's not showing in website) I'd try opening the website through VPN/proxy to check if updates takes effect.. That tutorial was helpful to me at once to set htaccess authentication: http://www.elated.com/articles/password-protecting-your-pages-with-htaccess/
