by Help! I have a doozy. Apache 1.3.2 and Netscape Communicator 4.0.4
% ../sbin/httpd -version
Server version: Apache/1.3.2 (Unix)
Server built: Sep 27 1998 20:42:44
%
I'm trying to do this:
/ accessible by user ABC with a password
/foo accessible by user XYZ with a password, also to ABC with password
I almost have it working. The only problem I have is when user XYZ
properly authenticates and surfs around the /foo location, and then
tries to access the / location, the browser and server "loop" in some kind
of "authentication battle" FOREVER. The error log just grows and grows
until I hit <STOP> on the browser.
Here is the access.conf file
<Directory />
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from All
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/etc/htpasswd.users
AuthType Basic
AuthName MyFooRealm
</Directory>
<Location />
require user abc
</Location>
<Location /foo/>
require user abc xyz
</Location>
Any help would be appreciated!
