[users@httpd] protecting a list of specific urls

2013-10-25 Thread Edward Quick
Hi group, I have a list of specific urls I want to protect, for example: /site1/abc /site2/tux /site3/zzz which I can configure in separate location blocks like below and that works fine. However I was wondering if there is a simpler way I can do this like a url whitelist file instead?

Hi Edward, You do know that Location supports regular expressions? You should be able to collapse all 3 into a single Location something like the following: Location ~ ^/(site1/abc|site2/tux|site3/zzz) AuthType Basic AuthName Administrators AuthBasicProvider ldap-centos

Thanks Colin, yes I did know that :-) I like the idea of just being able to cut and paste any url I want to protect into a list without the worry of regex though. Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2013 14:08:28 +0200 From: co...@sharpheart.org To: users@httpd.apache.org Subject: Re: [users@httpd] protecting
