Hello! I have a Apache/2.0.55 running on a BSD machine. I'm wondering how I could specify a different set of directives for a given directory based on whether it's accesed through plain HTTP or HTTPS - but without having to put the HTTPS-specific directives into the according VirtualHost section. Like accessing an environment variable indicating the transport used or something like that - based on which I could differentiate the directives. Specifically, I want to allow access only for my local subnet through plain HTTP, but allow access from anywere through HTTPS. The reason why I don't want to put the HTTPS-specific directives into the VirtualHost section is that I want all settings applying to a given directory to be in one place - and my VirtualHost section is included from a separate ssl.conf, so using that would mean separating the HTTPS-specific directives for the directory from the global directives. Could anyone point me to the right direction? I couldn't find any discussion of this matter on the net.
The variables available with mod_ssl are discussed here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#envvars See also the SSLOptions directive. These variables can be used with mod_rewrite, and may also work with mod_access, depending on the configuration. But my opinion is that you should just place the directives in the appropriate <VirtualHost>. Anything else would be adding needless complexity for hte sake of retaining an arbitrary config structure.
