I could be completely wrong, because I normally do auth via htaccess, but
shouldn't the "require valid-user" be in a <Limit> block within the
<Directory> block?
<Directory /home/httpd/cgi-bin/helpdesk>
AuthType Basic
AuthName helpdesk
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/passwords
<Limit GET PUT POST>
require valid-user
</Limit>
</Directory>
