Hi,


We tried setting up password authentication on one of the directories in our
apache virtualhost using a .htaccess file . we now notice that
the password authentication is working only for some users and not others.
Has anyone else noticed this. Ami I missing something here.
The directory and .htacess configs are as below:

47
48 AllowOverride ALL
49 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
50 Order allow,deny
51 Allow from all
52 AddType text/plain .txt
53 DefaultType text/plain
54 AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
55

..htacess:

deny from all
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Password Required"
AuthUserFile /ab/web/virthosts/abortal/prod/abcd/passwd
AuthGroupFile /ab/web/virthosts/bbiportal/prod/abcd/groups
Require group abcd
Require user efgh
satisfy any

Which ones?

From a thread this week:

Perhaps: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authz_groupfile.htm l#authzgroupfileauthoritative

actually, I found out what the problem was? now wondering how to rectify
it.

see our apache web server also uses a custom authentication module and the
earlier LoadModule config overrides the AllowOverride ALL directive that is
set in the Directory entry.

Any ideas how to get around this?

any ideas, how to force apache 1.3 to use the .htaccess file and not use the
authentication module?
