How does "Satisfy any" effect the lower directories? I have a directory /A and /A/B and /A/B/C. /A allows certain IPs /A/B asks for password /A/B/C asks for password I want to add the option "Satisfy any" on /A by prompting the client for a password when hes not on the allowed IP. When I do so, the password protection on B gets disabled... So then I add "Satisfy all" on B on top of the "Satisfy any" on A then it works OK even the protection on C is working Ok although I have not added the "Satisfy all" on C...
I don't understand what problem you are trying to address. It seems you have everything working as you want by using Satisfy All in /A/B If you are just curious about why it works: Satisfy, as with most apache directives, applies to the directory it is in and all child directories. So by applying it to /A you also apply it to /A/B and /A/B/C. By applying Satisfy All to /A/B you also apply it to /A/B/C.
