Hello Andy -
Yes you can use regular expressions with Handlers, and the first match is the only match.
If a request can match multiple Handlers, it will only be processed by the first one that matches. Therefore the more specific Handlers must appear before the more general Handlers in the list.
regards
Hugh

Hello guys,
I have some questions, about Handler behaviour. First question, is whether Handlers support regular expression syntax, like Realm does? In section 6.16 in the manual, there isn't any mentioning about that.. but as far as I'm concerned, I think it should be supported - but I would like confirmation. ;) I don't want to do any regexp matching against the name of the attributes, but rather against the attribute values (something like <Handler Called-Id = /(12345|54321)/i, User-Realm = /(this|that)/i>).
Second question: Realm supersedes Handler definitions in the configuration file, and Handlers get processed sequentially.. but what happens, if a request matches 2 handlers, like in the following case:
my request = [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Client-Id: 1.1.1.1)
<Handler User-Realm = /WHATEVER/i, Client-Id = /1\.1\.1\.1/> ... </Handler>
<Handler User-Realm = /WHATEVER/i> ... </Handler>
The request will match the first handler, but what happens if the AuthBy fails at that point? Will it still continue to the next Handler, or will it immediately send an Access-Reject?
Thanks!
-Andy
