 |
|
Hi folks,
I have a .htaccess/password file in my document root protecting this
directory (and all subdirectories) with a Basic authentification.
Now I would like to have a subdirectory not protected by this -
how can I accomplish that?
I've searched google but "AuthType None" or something similar
doesn't seem to exist 
Thanks!

Put an .htaccess in the subdirectory and override the settings of the parent dir. You will need to specify in the parent .htaccess that its settings may be overridden by children.

Thanks for your reply!
But which settings do I have to override and how (e.g. AuthType None doesn't seem to exist)?
My top .htaccess looks like:
| Code: | AuthType Basic
AuthName "realm"
AuthUserFile .passwords
Require valid-user |

Hi!
It's old topic, but I had the same issue and I found the answer.
In .htaccess put:
| Code: | Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Satisfy any |
More information you can find here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#satisfy |
