Hi,
this is my first post here :-)
basically I have google'd this issue a bit and finally realized that
there was no viable solution that I could deduce results from!
I have a few servers running apache and some folders which have
.htaccess files in them, I can access these from any network inside the
NAT of my router however when it comes down to external access from
outside the NAT I always get permission denied; authorized access only??
My systems are behind a reverse proxy handled by Squid but also after
Google'ing found that Squid doesn't care about .htaccess and doesn't
even know what it is.
Another page I read claimed that it could be an issue of IPS protection
system in the firewall - however iptables doesn't contain any config
only default and isn't even running I think only in conjunction with
fail2ban to prevent DoS attacks. My router, a Cisco 857W, also doesn't
have IPS at all and IDS isn't enabled.
Can anyone help me find a solution to this situation?? I have checked
the logs for httpd/access_log and error_log only to find nothing
mentioned about denying anything.....
Any recommendations are appreciated! Thanks
An example of one config file which is the config from Munin is here:
[code]
ScriptAlias /munin/cgi/ /var/www/munin/cgi/
#<Directory /var/www/munin/cgi/>
# Options ExecCGI
# SSLRequireSSL
# order deny,allow
# deny from all
# AuthType Basic
# AuthUserFile /site/cfg/passwd
# AuthGroupFile /site/cfg/group
# AuthName "munin"
# require group munin
# Satisfy Any
#</Directory>
#
Alias /munin/ /var/www/munin/
<Directory /var/www/munin/>
Options None
# SSLRequireSSL
order deny,allow
deny from all
AuthType Basic
# AuthUserFile /site/cfg/passwd
AuthUserFile /var/http-passwords
# AuthGroupFile /site/cfg/group
#AuthGroupFile /var/http-group
# AuthName "munin"
AuthName "Restricted Files"
# require group munin
Require user admin
Satisfy Any
</Directory>
[/code]
I followed the .htaccess example from the apache.org website and have a
single file where password/username is stored for multiple pages.....
