You don't say how it fails, but I would assume ( perhaps incorrectly ) that Locationdirectives are like Aliases, Apache will take the first one that matches. So you might try switching the order of the directives.
that'll be $.02 :) -ds----- Original Message ----- From: "Norman Timmler" <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hello, i cannot get a solution. One more try to get help from you. What i want is authenticate everybody who is accessing my website, but no authentication if URL starts with /public (by the way, the URLs are completely virtual and have no physical analogy): <Location ~ "^/"> Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from .myhost.com AuthType Basic AuthName "Tell me..." AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/.htpasswd AuthGroupFile /etc/apache2/.htgroups Require group admins Satisfy Any </Location> <Location ~ "^/public"> Order deny,allow Allow from all Satisfy Any </Location> I've tried a lot of different combinations, but this one looks like the clearest to me. But it is not working at all :( Any suggestions?
