Something like -

<Files index.php>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "intranet"
require valid-user
</Files>

...
                                                                                       
<Files no_detail_specids.php>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "intranet"
require user barnosky adam darrell steve rhopkins
</Files>

...
<Files td_hm_class.php>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "intranet"
AuthLDAPURL ldap://littleboy:389/o=Morrison Industries ,c=US?uid
require group cn=Intranet Training Application,ou=ACLGroups,o=Morrison 
Industries,c=US
</Files>

if you have directives in your httpd.conf -

<Directory "/var/www/html">
...
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "intranet"
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    AuthLDAPURL ldap://localhost:389/o=Morrison Industries,c=US?uid
...
</Directory>
