Hello, all - I'm looking for a way to disable Apache's ability to secure a directory using the .htaccess method of 'require valid-user'. Would it be possible to enable/disable this functionality based on an enviornment variable, for a specific user? I'm not terribly keen on Apache's conditional syntax, but I've seen directives for "Ifmodule" in the past, and I'm wondering if the same style of syntax can be used to surround a 'require valid-user' directive in Apache, to enable-disable it for specific users, on the fly. Thanks! -dant --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
