These ACLs...

... to here ...

... and the "auth" one will all trigger 407 challenges *if* they are the
last ACL on the line. Or if there are no credentials of any kind given
in the request.

Problem #1:
 Any client with halfway decent security will not simply broadcast
credentials on their first request of a new TCP connection, but will
wait for a 407 challenge to indicate both their need and the type of
credentials to send.

The "all" on this line will prevent that 407 happening. Instead it will
simply produce a plain 403 ERR_ACCESS_DENIED for any request lacking
(Kerberos) credentials.

NP: you can test whether this is your problem with a custom error page:

 acl test1 src all
 deny_info 499:ERR_ACCESS_DENIED test1
 http_access deny !auth test1

Your access.log should show the 499 status when its line matches.


> http_access allow !basic_domains !basic_extensions basic_users
> http_access allow !advanced_domains !advanced_extensions advanced_users

Basically okay. These will trigger 407 *if* (and only if) the client
sent Negotiate/Kerberos credentials AND does not have group permission
to access the URL being requested.

Be aware this will probably produce the popups allowing users to change
their credentials to those of another user account with the right group
access. That may or may not be what you want.


I usually find that *these* lines are the ones people most want not to
popup. You have complex ACL tests so the order can be shuffled to this:

  http_access allow !basic_domains basic_users !basic_extensions
  http_access allow !advanced_domains advanced_users !advanced_extensions

Which prevents the popups from group checking.

If you still want to retain the helper load reduction from having the
extension test first, then append " all" to each of those lines instead
of shuffling.

Problem 2:

Requests which somehow happen to get past the "deny !auth all" rule but
not have a domain listed in your *_domains ACLs or _do_ match the paired
*_extensions ACLs - will get denied by this final rule.

NP: you can test that like the earlier test, but use a different ACL
name and 49x status code.
