Sorry to post this little problem but I'm at my wit's end to find out what's
wrong.
I start the http daemon and try to access a site that requires a login and
password.
I have generated the login and password by using htpasswd, stored the
password in a file called .htpasswd, created a group file called .htgroup,
added their paths into my httpd.conf file, and created a .htaccess file in
the document root directory.
When I try to access the page, I am prompted for a login and password. I
enter these in but I keep getting an 'Authorisation Failed' message. I try
this for a few different logins and passwords that I have generated but none
seem to work.
This is what I have in my httpd.conf file:
***********************************************
DocumentRoot /export/users/vekraft/apache/www
<Directory "/export/users/vekraft/apache/www">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow, deny
Allow from all
<LIMIT GET POST>
require group webdevelop
</LIMIT>
deny from all
AuthName "Web Developers Only Please"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /export/users/vekraft/apache/secret/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /export/users/vekraft/apache/secret/.htgroup
require group webdevelop
satisfy any
</Directory>
*************************************************************
I have the correct paths to find the user/password, group etc... files but I
still cannot
get the authorisation thing to work.
I'm using Apache 1.3.11 with mod_ssl 2.5.0 and openssl 0.9.4 and netscape
communicator 4.7
I have also tried it on MSIE 5 and it doesn't on that either.
