[Trac] Installing trac without changing apache.conf

[Karol Krizka]

Hi,
I'm trying to install Trac on sf.net servers for a project that I am part of. 
So I don't have access to change many things. Everything went good so far, I 
got the precompiled binaries from the debian website and installed them into 
my home directory. Changed PYTHONPATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to them. 
Also I applied a patch that I found to disable svn when initializing a 
project by passing --none as path to repo. Now trac works and you can see it 
here:
http://amsn.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/trac.cgi

Now the problem, I cannot login. When I click login, I get the following 
error:
Trac detected an internal error: Authentication information not available.

I have added no auth stuff because I don't know how to add it to .htaccess so 
the login box only pops up when you press login. The following is 
my .htaccess:
SetEnv TRAC_ENV "/tmp/persistent/amsn/trac"
SetEnv PYTHONPATH "/home/groups/a/am/amsn/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages"
SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/home/groups/a/am/amsn/usr/lib"

I also tried adding the following:
<Files "login">
  AuthType Basic
  AuthName "Trac"
  AuthUserFile /somewhere/trac.htpasswd
  Require valid-user
</Files>
and replaceing "login" with "trac.cgi/login", but no luck. Any idea how I 
could I fix it without having to edit apache.conf as I don't have write 
access to it?
