We are running apache 2.2.6 on a Linux maxchine. We have the following code in our httpd.conf file <Directory /usr/local/indico/MaKaC> <FilesMatch "confRegistrationFormDisplay.py"> AuthUserFile /WWW/httpd/conf/.htpasswd AuthName "HP2010 Web Site" AuthType Basic <Limit GET> require user organizer </Limit> </FilesMatch> </Directory > Every time someone goes to http://www1.weizmann.ac.il/MaKaC/confRegistrationFormDisplay.py the person is indeed asked for a user name and password. However, http://www1.weizmann.ac.il/MaKaC/confRegistrationFormDisplay.py really takes parameters e.g. http://www1.weizmann.ac.il/MaKaC/confRegistrationFormDisplay.py?confid=2 and what I really want to do is require a password only for certain parameter values. So http://www1.weizmann.ac.il/MaKaC/confRegistrationFormDisplay.py?confid=2 would require a user and password but http://www1.weizmann.ac.il/MaKaC/confRegistrationFormDisplay.py?confid=3would not require a user and password. When I tried adding ?confid=3 to the <FilesMatch> directive, it did not work. Is there any way to do this? thanks for any information.
