I have 2 users who need to be able to access a website from anywhere and 2 users who only need to access it from a certain IP. Can authentication be restricted to a certain IP for certain users, and not restricted for others?
Hi.You can do pretty much what you want with Apache + mod_perl, in terms of access control and authentication. With Apache and the standard (non-perl) Apache modules, I doubt you can do what you indicate above. Just in case someone else wants to contradict me and follow this up, can you be a bit more precise about what you want ?
Do you want e.g. :- any connection from IP 1.2.3.4 will (automatically) be authenticated as "userA" and be granted access ?
OR- userA gets access if he not only authenticates with user-id/pw but *also* is accessing from IP address 1.2.3.4 ?
AND/OR- accesses from addresses other than 1.2.3.4 must always authenticate with valid userid/pw ?
etc..Depending on your precise requirements, there may still exist a devious combination of "Allow from .." and "Require .." and "Satisfy .." that may work, maybe. Or maybe you could set up 2 <VirtualHost> with slightly different AAA requirements, but accessing the same DocumentRoot ?
