Hi,

we are thinking about using mass virtual hosting to reduce the configuration effort. Simplified we want each virtual host like
(${customer} is a variable for the host-name)


<VirtualHost *:80>        
    ServerName www.${customer}.com
    ServerAlias customer.myhost.com
    DocumentRoot /data/htdocs/customer

    <Location /awstats>
        AuthType Basic
        AuthName "Restricted Files"
        AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/passwd/${customer}
        Require valid-user
    </Location>           
</VirtualHost>

As I understand the documentation it is quite simple to set up a mass VirtualHost-system. The only two things I could not find in the documentation was this: If I like to restrict access to a specific resource (here: /awstats) do I have to specify the <Location> for each virtual host? Or is there a possibility to specify the access restrictions in a more abstract way so that we can specify the rule once? Ideally the solution would use different password-files.

For any help, links to other documentation I'd be very happy

With regards
Tino
