AuthBasic - Adding one Exception

[Prasanna Ram Venkatachalam <vpram86@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

 

I am using Apache configured with mod_auth_basic module. I added the AuthType Basic and other related information in <Location />.

This is protecting all accesses to all locations in WebServer. Now i want to add one exception for a particular page /xyz, if it is accessed from a particular host abc

I tried putting a separate <Location /xyz> and used Allow, Require and Satisy Any directives. It did not work and still asks for credentials. Is there a way to allow this kind of exception? Please advice.

 

This is what am using now

<Location />
AuthType Basic
AuthName TEST
AuthUserFile "location to user file"
Require valid-user
</Location>

<Location /xyz>
    Require valid-user
    Order allow,deny   
    Allow from abc
    Satisfy Any
</Location>

 

Thanks in advance

Regards
