I am learning apache, and the ironic part is that reading the apache documentation on acl reinforced my doubt in this matter.
In this part:
In the following example, all hosts in the apache.org domain are allowed access; all other hosts are denied access.
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from apache.org
---
My interpretation on this example:
Order Deny,Allow (allow everything, unless specifically denied)
Deny from all (deny everything.. kind of contradictory after the last line)
Allow from apache.org (allow this specific hosts)
---
Why not use this, that has fewer steps and seems more logical?:
Order Allow,Deny (deny by default)
Allow from apache.org (allow this specific hosts)
I am getting it wrong or what? Why almost every example I see seems kind of contradictory? |
