I am using .htaccess to control access to a directory. However, this hides the directory from the index listing of its parent dir (if the user isnt logged in). Is there a trick to Options, IndexOptions or AuthXXX to list all directories, regardless of their access control, when a user isnt logged in? I want a user to be able to see the directories they need to login to enter. (then when they click, on them, they will need to login). At the moment, they dont even know the directory is there... httpd.conf ------------------- <Directory "/data/scm/buildarchive/archives"> Options Indexes MultiViews IndexOptions +FoldersFirst +SuppressDescription AllowOverride AuthConfig Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> .htaccess in /data/scm/buildarchive/archives/ARCH1 ------------------- AuthType Basic AuthName "RESTRICTED ACCESS: Login Required for this archive" AuthUserFile /data/scm/buildarchive/archives/ARCH1/.passwd Require user user1 user2 Thanks in advance, Nick This message and any attachments (the "message") is intended solely for the addressees and is confidential.
