Hi All, I am putting in a new server to replace an old server we are using. The old server is running FC3 and Apache 2.0.53. The new server is running FC5 and Apache 2.2.0. We have a small user base and use .htaccess file to manage access in people's public_html directories using "require user". We also have a small support staff that access user' public_html directories with "require group". Under 2.0.53 in the .htaccess file we would have both the "require group" and the "require user" lines. Both people in the group and the named user could access the directory just fine. Under 2.2.0 it appears that the last "require" line is the only one that is allowed to access the folder. Is there a setting or way to have both the "require group" and the "require user" work? I want the access to be this user and this group.
Some additional info, I have looked in the 2.2.0 server's ssl_error_log and I see the following error:access to /~someid failed, reason: user 'myid' does not meet 'require'ments for user/valid-user to be allowed access
However, I have verified that 'myid' is in the staff group. The standard .htaccess file looks something
like this: AuthName "Some User's Data" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /Our/data/users AuthGroupFile /Our/data/groups require group staff require user someid If I remove the require user line I can access the folder by my id being in the groups file. Of course the user can't. Under 2.0.53 this works so that either the user or the people in the group can authenticate and access the data. What am I missing here?
