The problem is not to skip the htaccess file, it is the effect that files have on python.

So here is the code for example:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import os

outfile = os.path.join("/home","user","public_html","myscanner","scans","scan_result.php")
logfile = os.path.join("/home","user","public_html","myscanner","scans","log_result.php")

datei=open(outfile,"w")
datei.close()
dateilog=open(logfile,"w")
dateilog.close()

root="/home"
for allfiles in os.listdir(root):
    if os.path.isdir(os.path.join(root, allfiles)):
    if "id" in allfiles:
        newpath = os.path.join(root,allfiles)
        for r,d,f in os.walk(newpath):
        if "public_html" in r:
                for files in f:
                if os.path.isfile(os.path.join(r,files)):
                    size=os.path.getsize(os.path.join(r,files))
                    if files.startswith("."):
                    break
                    else:
                    if size <= 2048000:
                         print files

So now for explanation, first that code should list all files within the "root" directory. Next step is to only use the folders with "id" in it and search for public_html within that directories.
Next step is to exclude all files that start with ".", that also includes .htaccess and finally there is the filter for only taking files smaller than 2048000.

That piece of code just works fine and list for example all .php files that pass all that criteria, but if in one of these folders a .htaccess with the following code in it:

Code:

<FilesMatch \.php$>
deny from all
</FilesMatch>

The scanner is not able to read the .php files. I just tested it a few times and without .htaccess he can show all files including the .php but with that htaccess in it, the .php files are not shown any more. The rest of the files, for example .html is still shown.

Hopefully you understood what I mean, because I am just starting with python, maybe there is a logical mistake within my code.

       Options: -a address     manually specify the address

       -r URL NAT router, use web IP detection

       -A text
	      scan syslog for an IP after text (Unix only)

       -F filename
	      guess the WAN IP from a firewall log

       -b     backup mx option ON (default OFF)

       -c     custom dns option (default dynamic)

       -d dir directory for data files (default current)

       -e script
	      execute script after a successful update

       -f     force update regardless of current state

       -g     NAT router, let dyndns guess your IP (do not use this in a cronjob, try -r)

       -h     print this help text

       --help print all available help text

       -i interface
	      interface for local address (default ppp0)

       -j     disable https

       -l     log debugging text to ipcheck.log file

       --syslog
	      log debugging text to syslog (Unix only)

       -m mxhost
	      mx host (default NOCHG)

       -o     set dyndns offline mode

       -v     verbose mode

       -w     wildcard mode ON (default OFF)

       --makedat
	      create the ipcheck.dat file by dns lookup

       --devices
	      print router options (Linksys, Netgear, etc)

       -n ip  the router IP address on the internal lan

       For  help  with different options: python ipcheck.py -h For supported devices listing  : python ipcheck.py --devices For long detailed help
       text    : python ipcheck.py --help

       Make sure you can write to the current directory for data files and that you always run from the same directory.  The first  time  you  run
       the  script,  you will be asked to run with the --makedat option in addition to any other options.  This will create the data files for the
       hostnames and options your specify on the command line.	You should only do this once.  Subsequent runs should be made without the  --make-
       dat option.

       For  help  with different options: python ipcheck.py -h For supported devices listing  : python ipcheck.py --devices For long detailed help
       text    : python ipcheck.py --help

       Example 1: the external IP is on eth0 of the current machine python ipcheck.py -l -i eth0 username password hostnames

       Example 2: you are using the Linksys routing device python ipcheck.py -l -L linksyspassword username password hostnames

       Example 3: you want to use web based ip detection python ipcheck.py -l -r checkip.dyndns.org:8245 ...

       where ... is your dyndns username password and hostnames.  Hostnames should be comma delimited if there are more than one.
