mod_access is gone as of, I believe, 2.1; there are various mod_auth*
modules which should be present with a normal apache2 install, I see:

mod_auth_basic.so
mod_auth_digest.so
mod_authn_anon.so
mod_authn_dbd.so
mod_authn_dbm.so
mod_authn_default.so
mod_authn_file.so
mod_authz_dbm.so
mod_authz_default.so
mod_authz_groupfile.so
mod_authz_host.so
mod_authz_owner.so
mod_authz_svn.so
mod_authz_user.so

(all in ${prefix}/apache2/modules).

Further info can be found at:
