Also give output of "ls -l /path/to/dot/htacess/file"

      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Change above to AllowOverride AuthConfig

    AllowOverride None
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "av1984_auth"
    AuthUserFile /mount/repositories/av1984_apache_authfile

Suggest you rename it to .av1984_apache_authfile otherwise to prevent 
others gaining access to this file by giving the full path.

    Require ashish valid-user
</Directory>

<Directory /mount/repositories/fc10>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
