Thank you guys, The problem was with "guest" account. I went through the code, and found out that users have by default "guest" access right. In my case, guest account had full access (how stupid is it!!! It came with the installation as default!!!). Anyway, the problem was solved :).

This has nothing to do with the "software" not being secure. It is simply that you have not configured access to the resource correctly. It is impossible to be certain about what you have done wrong but (based on the pretend URL you quoted) I would guess you have your main page in a protected realm but are referring to images which are outside the realm. For example: http://your-site/dir/page.html - this is under password access, but the page contains an image ref like: <img src="/image.png">. Then the request for the image is like http://your-site/image.png. Since this is not under /dir, it is not protected. If you'd like to provide a link to the page in question, I'd be happy to check it.

Oktober 2005 10:33 To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [users@httpd] security Hi, In our web, users should login to access certain contents. But today we've just realized that, one can acces those contents without loging in. In other words, just typing http://xxx.xx/graph_view.php?action=tree&tree_id=22 brings the graphs. We are using free software, may be that's why it is not so secure. Has anyone suggest me how to prevent these kind of things. How can I configure apache, so that it won't bring the page if it has REMOTE_USER env variable not set? Or if it has nothing to do with Apache? BR, Baynaa.
