apache LocationMatch

[hydrobum]

Hi all,

I'm trying to secure a site after /cgi-bin/*/admin/* using LocationMatch so basically link with the "admin" directory needs to be protected ie.

<LocationMatch &quot;/cgi-bin/*/admin/*&quot;>
SetHandler server-status
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 172.16
</LocationMatch>

I can't seem to get this working. Do I need the .htaccess files or can I just configure it in there httpd.conf??

Thanks
Dennis

Do you get any errors or similar? //Daniel

 

[hydrobum]

no errors from apache besides
Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) configured -- resuming normal operations
Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default: sysvsem)

 

[danielhozac]

Nothing when you try and access a directory either? //Daniel

seems like it does not like multiple /* so if I just use /cgi-bin/* it seems to work but then when I try access a html page /cgi-bin/test/index.html, it takes me to this &quot;Apache Server Status for mymachinename&quot; and spits out this current/restart/uptime times and PID.

I guess it's getting somewhere but not where I want it to go. Any more ideas?

Thanks!

nevermind that msg. I had the server-status sethandler on.
DOH! It still doesn't like multiple /* although this should work just fine.

Thanks for da help.
