Yup. Changing the "SSLVerifyClient require" to: SSLVerifyClient optional SSLRequire %{SSL_CLIENT_VERIFY} eq "SUCCESS" might work around it; you'll still get a client cert request for the subrequest, but it should end in a 403 rather than terminating the SSL connection. (That will cause the protected directory to disappear from the directory listing, unless you use "IndexOptions ShowForbidden") Test this carefully though! joe ______________________________________________________________________ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List modssl-users@modssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
