Full_Name: John Douglass Version: mod_ssl/2.7.1 OS: Solaris 2.7 Submission from: (NULL) (128.61.2.35) I'm playing around with client certificate authentication. Software used: OpenSSL 0.9.6 Apache 1.3.14 Mod_SSL 2.7.1 My .htaccess file looks like: SSLRequireSSL SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth SSLVerifyClient require SSLVerifyDepth 3 SSLRequire %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_O} eq "Georgia Tech" && \ %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_OU} eq "IT-Operations & Engineering" && \ %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN} =~ m/.*\(jd187\)/ What occurs at random intervals is when I reload the page, sometimes I will get the certificate choice and it will auth as normal, but at other times when I reload the page, it gives me the following error in "script_log" with a "500: Internal Server Error". [Fri Nov 17 10:27:42 2000] [alert] [client xxx.xx.x.xx] /services/www/content/stuff/.htaccess: SSLRequire: syntax error It's not consistant in performance. One time it will work, a third time or so down the road it won't. ______________________________________________________________________ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
