Hi,
i would like to know how to redirect a user to other directory example:
Alias /mydata "D:\myfolder"
<Directory "D:\myfolder">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride AuthConfig
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthUserFile "C:\apache\conf\passwords"
Require user user1
Require user user2
Order allow,deny
Allow from All
</Directory>
I want user2 to be redirect to other directory like test data if he passed the authentication |

If you only want to re-direct user2, but not user1 or any other user - you may need to use mod_rewrite to change the URI based on the user name.
Maybe mod_rewrite rules like this will work for you: | Code: | Alias /testdata "D:/test_data"
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_USER} user2
RewriteRule /?(.*) /testdata/$1 [L] |
Make sure that the directory which the /testdata URI is aliased to has a <Directory> block which:* allows access from any host (Allow from all)
* is password-protected to only allow user2 (Require user user2) Hope this helps,

p.s. Your example shows backslashes (\) in the directory names. You should always use forward slashes (/) in httpd.conf, even on Windows. |
