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

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?
