Hi there, I configured a virtual host to authenticate users via ldap, which works fine. Now I want to exclude a subdirectory from that, so it's accessible without any authentication. I did this before with normal file based authentication but with ldap I can't get it working, no matter what I try. Any access to the excluded subdirectory is still prompted with a 401 response and logged like this: [Thu Jan 01 22:12:38 2009] [warn] [client 10.0.1.42] [21471] auth_ldap authenticate: user xxxxx authentication failed; URI /web/ [User not found][No such object] [Thu Jan 01 22:12:38 2009] [error] [client 10.0.1.42] user xxxxx not found: /web/ Any help how to get this working is appreciated! - David Configuration within the virtual host: <Location /> SSLRequireSSL AuthType Basic AuthName "xxxxx" AuthBasicProvider ldap AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off AuthLDAPURL "ldap://10.132.0.5:389/CN=Users,DC=xxx,DC=de?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=user)" AuthLDAPBindDN "apache-ldap@xxx" AuthLDAPBindPassword "xxxx" require valid-user </Location> <Location /web/> Allow from all Satisfy any </Location> --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
