Krist: No, I had already tried that with Satisfy...no go. William: "^/!(foo)" doesn't match at all, letting everything through.I'm going to stick with "^/($|[^f][^o][^o]($|/))" for now. That won't work if we had paths that are less than 3 characters and not followed by a slash, but we don't.
But I'm certain that it is using the old egrep-style regexes rather than PCRE. Maybe I should file a bug with the Debian folks, since this is just a standard Debian package installation. Anyone else using the Debian package for whom PCRE is working fine?

It seems to me that PCRE is just not installed, but this is the standard Debian package and I haven't seen any other posts complaining about this.AFAIK Apache dopesn't need any external PCRE libs. What you need is the "Satisfy" directive. <Location /> AuthType Basic AuthName "Development Site" AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/auth/dev-passwd Require valid-user </Location> <Location /foo> Order allow,deny Allow from all Satisfy any </Location> Krist
