Martijn,Maybe I'm missing something, but in this case wouldn't using .htaccess be a good approach?

Hello everyone,I've been trying to solve this for the last 2 days, but somehow I'm unable to see the logic here. Hope anyone can help me explain what's going on:I've got a few directories, lets say they're named A, B, C and D. Two of these (A and B) need to be restricted. I figured that this should be done by the following regexp: <Directory ~ "/home/websites/(A|B)"> To my knowledge, this should match /home/websites/A or /home/websites/B .Instead, Apache matches everything in /home/websites and blocks access to C and D as well.Strange, since a very similar regexp is shown in the apache 1.3 documentation:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/core.html#locationI also tried using (A|B)/? and several ways of matching the start and end of the string using ^ and $ , but to no effect.In an attempt to isolate the problem, I tried something else: <Directory ~ "(/home/websites/A|/home/websites/B)"> But strangely, this DOES match A but NOT B, so now I'm confused. I've checked the path and I'm sure there are no mistakes there.If I'm not using a regexp, eg. <Directory "/home/websites/A"> (or B), everything works like it should, so my guess would be that the contents of the directory-directive are right, only the regexp is the problem.What am I missing here?
