How to make rights on Apache?

Post by Raimund Sachere » Wed, 04 Aug 1999 04:00:00



We have a LinuxServer which is connected to Internet via Cabel. I wanna
create a Apache Server for Our Technican users only, which could download
and get Information from our Server, while they are working outside for
Customers.

So, how do i make a Secure Login from a Browser to the Apache Server?

Regards

try to use the mod_auth see e.g.
http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/infosys/servers/http/apache/docs/mod/mod_auth....

example: create a .htacess file

AuthType Basic
AuthName anything
AuthUserFile /path/to/file/with/passwords
require valid-user

so everybody gets a password dialog window and has to supply a valid
password to read the contents; the password file is created/changed with the
htpasswd program

How to make rights on Apache?

Sorry, but I was just checking the groups when I came across these
postings.

Would it be possible for someone to print an example of what would be
reqiured and where, as I have been having some difficulty in fathoming
the ins and outs of the same problem. I managed to get a hold of one of
the Dummies books on Apache,but alas, I must be slighty more than dumb,
maybe just plain thick, as this book does not really help, either

All help is greatly appreciated

1. Apache: Making Apache lock a file while it is using it?

Hi all: I currently have a webcam setup on my site. I have a program
which writes a jpeg to a place in my html directory, and the it is
updated via some javascript on my webpage. See
http://brinkman.student.princeton.edu/~bo/index.php3?section=Me

The problem is this: Sometimes the program writing the file, and Apache
appear to access the file at the same time, the result being that only a
portion of the file gets sent, and sometimes netscape gets REALLY
confused. Is there a way to configure Apache to lock this file (or all
files?) while it transmits them? Adding file locking code to my
frame-grabbing application was easy, but it doesn't seem to have any
effect (I tried both flock and fcntrl) so I assume Apache is not locking
files while it sends them. Are there configuration options that will
allow me to do what I want? Or is there a better way to prevent this
problem? Thanks!
