[Tips] How to Dynamically Limit Access to a folder based on its name and Apache SSL Session Variable

Hello everybody, is it possible to dynamically restrict access to a folder based on its name?

For example, all my folders are MAC address names and I would like to dynamically restrict each directory access based on %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN} which
contains the mac address of the client
Thanks

ex:
Restrict /home/web/provisioning/000e08133a50 folder to be accessible only by host with SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN="000e08133a50"
Restrict /home/web/provisioning/000e08133a54 folder to be accessible only by host with SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN="000e08133a54"
....

But doing it dynamically without changing apache configuration or creating a .htpasswd each time I add a new folder

I would like to have something like

SSLVerifyClient require
SSLRequire %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN} =~ m/^NAME_OF_THE_WILDCARD_FOLDER_WITCH_IS_ALSO_A_MAC_ADDRESS$/



Thanks for your help!
Best Regards,
