access to my server is always allowed

aneuryzma · #1 (**permalink**) 05-22-2009

Hi,

I can't deny the access to my server. if I visit http://localhost I can always see all the files.
Why ?

Code:

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from All
</Directory>

Code:

<Directory "/Users/aneuryzma/Sites">
    #
    # Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
    # or any combination of:
    #   Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
    #
    # Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
    # doesn't give it to you.
    #
    # The Options directive is both complicated and important.  Please see
    # http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options
    # for more information.
    #
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

    #
    # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
    # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
    #   Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
    #
    AllowOverride None
                               
    #
    # Controls who can get stuff from this server.
    #
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all

</Directory>

thanks

See the Apache mod_access docs.

Here is a clue:

Code:

SetEnvIf User-Agent ^KnockKnock/2\.0 let_me_in
<Directory /docroot>
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from env=let_me_in
</Directory>

Hi,

i've modified to

Code:

<Directory "/Users/aneuryzma/Sites">
    #
    # Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
    # or any combination of:
    #   Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
    #
    # Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
    # doesn't give it to you.
    #
    # The Options directive is both complicated and important.  Please see
    # http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options
    # for more information.
    #
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

    #
    # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
    # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
    #   Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
    #
    AllowOverride None
                               
    #
    # Controls who can get stuff from this server.
    #
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from env=let_me_in

</Directory>

but still everything is accessible.

I've also tried

Code:

Order Deny,Allow
Deny from All

and

Code:

Order Deny,Allow

I'm sure the directory path is correct, because the indexing works properly.

Did you restart apache after each configuration change?

yes!

sudo apachectl -k restart

and refreshed firefox cache
