Dear Apache Users, I have been looking at a problem for so many hours now that I think it has made me blind. The below configuration is intended to restrict access to /admin-cgi/ to members of the group "admin", which is defined in a plain text file, whilst users and passwords are in a DBM file. [...] AuthGroupFile /Users/leegoddard/src/www/northfoto2/auth/northfoto_groups.db1. What does the error log say? Adjust LogLevel if necessary. 2. Is that a plain text file? 3. What "Satisfy" directive is in effect? Set a specific Satisfy All to be safe.
More details: When a user not in admin or adminjr group accesses /admin-cgi :[Mon Feb 21 10:53:45 2011] [error] [client ::1] Authorization of user blikkdisp to access /admin-cgi/admin.cgi/users/ failed, reason: user is not part of the 'require'ed group(s).
These groups are: admin: lee mhm root adminjr: adminjr1 adminjr2 adminjr3 lee mhm rootBut adminjr1, of adminjr gruop, does have access to admin-cgi, even though that directory has Require group admin
