That should be "valid-user", and not "valid user". See
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#require.

Also, I hope that "nightlyuser" is a user in the LDAP, somewhere under
ou=Users,DC=US,DC=COM ?

If you still can't get it to work, I suggest you first try to connect
with a regular browser (just surfing to $REPO_URL), and try to
authenticate with "nightlyuser" and its password. Just to eliminate
your nightly build system from the equation ...
