In the Un*x world everything is possible :)
Just add the next lines to your access.conf or httpd.conf
<location /passes.php3>
AuthType basic
AuthName "private"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache/pwapache
require valid-user
order allow,deny
allow from all
</location>
and restart apache, you can add a user to the passwd file with the
htpasswd command.
