Hi, I'm using Gentoo 2005.0 and Apache 2 with -D DAV -D DAV_FS. WebDAV is working but there are still things I don't master as far as access control is concerned. My Apache2 httpd is using vhosts from dynamic-vhosts.conf. In the latter file I added: DAVlockDB /path/to/lock/file <Directory "/var/www/my.server.com/htdocs"> DAV On Options All <IfModule mod_access.c> Order allow,deny Allow from all </IfModule> AllowOverride AuthConfig <Limit PUT POST DELETE PROPFIND PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK> </Limit> </Directory> In /var/www/my.server.com/htdocs there are no .htaccess files for now so anyone can access for testing. But if I create an .htaccess in /var/www/my.server.com/htdocs/PRIVATE/user1/.htaccess with this content: AuthType Basic AuthName "whatever" AuthUserFile /path/to/htpasswd2-created-userpasswordfile require valid-user the directory /var/www/my.server.com/htdocs/PRIVATE/user1 simply doesn't appear in either a standard web browser or a webDAV client such as WebFolders or DAVexplorer. Any directories/files "above" "user1" are displayed. Apache log doesn't report anything. Isn't "Options All" supposed to do a listing of all dirs and files? Do you see any errors in my configuration settings? (do you need more data?) Regards, Vieri __________________________________ Yahoo!
