Hi
I'm using htpasswd to write the user password form my htaccess.
It works only if I put "require valid-user" not if I put "require
specificuser"
any idea?
Have you tried:
AuthType Basic (or Digest)
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/passwd/htpasswords
Require user specificuser
Make sure that the path to the htpasswords file is outside your webroot - you
don't want visitors to be able to access it!
I check the log file here is the line:
77.54.124.11 - specificuser [09/Mar/2010:16:46:35 +0100] "GET /admin
HTTP/1.1" 401 472
it does not auth.
My .htaccess:
AuthUserFile /so/secret/path/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Shoot the password"
AuthType Basic
<Limit GET POST>
require specificuser
</limit>
<FilesMatch "^([_a-z0-9A-Z])+$">
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule (.*) /admin/index.n
</FilesMatch>
so I shall avoir this <Limit> keyword...? Actually I don't get why just
specify that for GET and POST if someone arrive with a PUT does it mean
it will let it pass??
