Is there a way to do something like this? <Files / !=/robots.txt !=/downloads/> AuthName "Restricted Area" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /var/www/.htpasswd AuthGroupFile /dev/null require valid-user </Files> I basically want to require a password everywhere but on robots.txt and the downloads folder. I want to still require encryption and limit access by subnet on the downloads though just no password. robots.txt needs to be open to the world. Confusing even myself but learning as I go. >> One other thing though.
