I guess I might have to modify the module to recognise another couple of variables say CrowdAllowedWriteGroups and CrowdAllowedReadGroups and not worry about the <Limit> directives as I think I'm using them in a way that wasn't intended.
That's what I think, too. The relevant concept here seems to be the one of scope. See: Configuration Sections - Apache HTTP Server http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/sections.html | Directives in the configuration files may apply to the entire server, | or they may be restricted to apply only to particular directories, | files, hosts, or URLs. This document describes how to use | configuration section containers or .htaccess files to change the | *scope* of other configuration directives. The document then lists directives that do change the scope, and <Limit> is not among them. Michael Ludwig
