[us...@httpd] AuthBasic - Adding one Exception

2009-10-09 Thread Prasanna Ram Venkatachalam
Hi All,

I am using Apache configured with mod_auth_basic module. I added the
AuthType Basic and other related information in Location /.
This is protecting all accesses to all locations in WebServer. Now i want to
add one exception for a particular page /xyz, if it is accessed from a
particular host abc
I tried putting a separate Location /xyz and used Allow, Require and
Satisy Any directives. It did not work and still asks for credentials. Is
there a way to allow this kind of exception? Please advice.

This is what am using now
Location /
AuthType Basic
AuthName TEST
AuthUserFile location to user file
Require valid-user
/Location
Location /xyz
Require valid-user
Order allow,deny
Allow from abc
Satisfy Any
/Location

Thanks in advance

Regards
Prasanna Ram

Can't you just remove the Require valid-user ?

Thank Andre. I tried that.
Removing that from Location /xyz is still asking for credentials :( (i
guess because / is protected)
I want the whole root to be protected, so i cannot remove it from Location
/
Just want to add an exception for a single page for single IP/host
