Quick Allow/Deny Question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

I am a bit confused regarding the difference between:

        <Directory />
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride None
        </Directory>

and:

        <Directory /var/www/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride None
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
        </Directory>

I am trying to lock down the server to only allow connections from my local subnet, so should I place these Order/Allow/Deny statements in the / directory block, or the /var/www?

Thanks!
