I've just built up a
server, and added in mod_auth_pam to allow my system users to log in to other
things via the web.
Heres what i did
after the install
added a user
'test'
created a folder in
/var/www/html called test
created a file
called .htaccess which contained
AuthType
Basic
AuthName "Testing
mod_auth_pam"
require group
test
require user
test
Then i added the
line
AllowOverride
AuthConfig
to
/etc/httpd/conf/access.conf
and restarted
apache
Upon restart i get
the error
Syntax error on line
9 of /etc/httpd/conf/access.conf: AllowOverride not allowed
here
I followed what
little documentation i could find about mod_auth_pam to the letter, referring to
the faq included in the distribution to add the line into the
access.conf.
First i'd like to
know how i can tell whether mod_auth_pam is being loaded by
apache?
Then i'd like to
know how to get rid of this error message and how i can get the darned thing
working!!!
I'm in distress here
could a fellow hacker help PLEASE!!!!
