Greetings Jirka and others,

I need to better understand what security implications I may have created with changes made to the httpd.conf file. I appear to have success with my Vhosted Suse box! Can someone explain the changes I made to the Directory and Should I use the .htaccess file instead (not that I know how)?

# forbid access to the entire filesystem by default
<Directory />
   Options None
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
</Directory>

# use .htaccess files for overriding,
AccessFileName .htaccess
# and never show them
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
   Order allow,deny
   Deny from all
</Files>

It seems the default httpd.conf setting is set to deny everyone access to all files. I thought this was superseded by the permissions given later in the section for Vhosts.

Regards,

Albert Engle

What's in your error log file(s) ?
This is starting to become a total deja vu....try the docs on httpd.apache.org. There is a whole chapter on this in mod_auth
