In htaccess using Apache 2.2.x, is there a way to require a password and a certain IP address, and block outright everyone else?
I've tried all the Allow/Deny/Require/Satisfy combinations I could find or try. Maybe someone here has the answer? I did an extensive search but everyone is looking to allow bypassing a password for certain IP addresses, not demanding an IP and password.
I would suggest setting up your configuration to require just a password first, and once you have that working as intended. Add the correct allow from directive to the htaccess file. For example
Allow from 192.168.0.0
You should not need to add anything else as Satisfy All is the default, but if you are still having problems add this as well.
If you are still having problems show us the htaccess file and check the rest of your config for overriding configuration.
New config based on discussion below:
<Location />
Order allow,deny
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthBasicProvider file
AuthUserFile /path/to/htpasswd
Require valid-user
Satisfy all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>
Additional info, doesn't need the <Location> block if in htaccess

Is it possible to require Basic Authentication for all but specified User Agents in Apache configuration?
P.S. I know that User Agents can be easily faked, but for my use case such conditional authentication would be enough.
After searching for quite a bit and experimenting, I came up with the answer. One needs these lines in their .htaccess file:
SetEnvIf User-Agent ^VipAgent1 vip_agent
SetEnvIf User-Agent ^VipAgent2 vip_agent
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from env=vip_agent
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Protected Login"
AuthUserFile /path/to/htpasswd
Require valid-user
Satisfy any
In addition, for this to work, one would need to make sure that mod_rewrite, mod_authn_file, and mod_setenvif are enabled in httpd.conf and also this directive is set there:
AllowOverride All
This configuration gives access for requests with User Agent starting "VipAgent1" and "VipAgent2", but asks for the authentication credentials for all other visitors.
I have a question to a complex apache configuration (apache 2.2). Is the following possible, and if yes, how:
From some IPs access to particular files should be allowed without authentication.
From other IPs access to the same files should be allowed with authentication only.
From all other IPs access should not be allowed.
I've tried with
general:
Order deny,allow
deny from all
Then two blocks for the specified directory:
<Location /testverzeichnis/index.html>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "blabla"
Deny from all
Allow from <IP1>
AuthUserFile /srv/www/apache/.htpasswd
Require user scht
</Location>
This does work! I got a window for user/password, and on the second machine access is not allowed.
Then I tried to get access without password from the second machine:
<Location /testverzeichnis/index.html>
Deny from all
Allow from <IP2>
</Location>
But then I got the authentication box on the second machine!
Is this possible at all?
Thank you in advance!

"Satisfy any" in a single configuration section.
I'm trying to migrate from Apache 2.2 over to 2.4. One problem I'm having is getting one of my .htaccess files working as it does in 2.2. Essentially what I'm trying to do is allow all of my servers to get to the website without a password, and then require a simple password when someone not from my network, or on one of our desktops trys to get to it. The statements below are from 2.2 and work as intended. The deny statement is a subset of IP's inside the allowed from group.
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Dev password"
AuthUserFile /path/.htpass
Require user devuser
order allow,deny
allow from xxx.xxx.xx.x/24 xxx.xxx.xx.x/16 xxx.xxx.xxx.x/24
deny from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/25
Satisfy any
This however is how I thought I would do the same thing in 2.4 but I cannot get it to work:
RequireAny
RequireAll
RequireAny
Require ip 10.0
Require ip 192.168.0
/RequireAny
RequireNone
Require ip 10.0.10
Require ip 192.168.0.128/25
/RequireNone
/RequireAll
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Dev password"
AuthUserFile /path/.htpass
Require user dev
/RequireAny
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? It's not requesting authenticate from my desktops.
Sorry it's not showing my tags for requireall and requireany. so I don't have them tagged.
You seem to be doing it right. Crank-up the LogLevel for authz:
LogLevel authz_core:trace3
and see, what gets logged for each hit. It may be something as silly as a typo in the IP-range specification, for example.
Say I have a htaccess file shared by "dev.server" and "server.site.com".
The first domain should allow all users to access it unchallenged (it only exists on my local development server).
The second domain I want to authenticate users with Apache (NOT by database).
The code to authenticate users is:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Server Admin"
AuthUserFile "/path/to/passwd"
require valid-user
What I can't do is make those 4 lines only matter if the domain is "server.site.com". How can I do this?
I searched for something like <IfEnv HTTP_HOST "site.server.com"> but had no luck.
This appears to work, still need to do some testing on it though.
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
SetEnvIf Host domain.for.no.auth dev
Allow from env=dev
AuthUserFile .pwd
AuthType Basic
AuthName MySite
Require valid-user
Satisfy Any
As far as I know, this can't be done in a .htaccess file. You'd have to put this into a Directory or VirtualHost section, both of which can't be used in a .htaccess file.
You would have to define it in two separate files, or directly in the server's configuration in the VirtualHost section.
So here's what I'd like to do:
access to http://example.com/* would require the user to enter a username/password, except when they go to a certain URIs (e.g. http://example.com/contact/ , http://example.com/blog/, etc.) they shouldn't have to authenticate. http://example.com (the root) should be open, too.
I know I've got to set up some special .htaccess directives, but I don't know exactly how to go about doing it. Does anyone know how I could accomplish this?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
For the subdirectory, simply turn off basic authentication. It seems there is no direct way to do so (e.g. through a "require none" directive), but you can say that you accept host-based access control, and that any host can access. The following works for me:
<Location /foo>
AuthType Basic
AuthName Foo
AuthUserFile /tmp/passwd
require valid-user
</Location>
<Location /foo/bar>
Allow from all
Satisfy any
</Location>
