The Require Directives

+ +

Apache's Require + directives are used during the authorization phase to ensure that + a user is allowed to access a resource. mod_authz_groupfile extends the + authorization types with group and group-file. +

+ +

Since v2.4.8, expressions are supported + within the groupfile require directives.

+ +

Require group

+ +

This directive specifies group membership that is required for the + user to gain access.

+ + 
Require group admin
+ + + + +

Require file-group

+ +

When this directive is specified, the filesystem permissions on + the file being accessed are consulted. The user must be a member of + a group with the same name as the group that owns the file. + See mod_authz_owner for more + details.

+ + 
Require file-group

AuthGroupFile Directive

+ + + + + + + +
Description:Sets the name of a text file containing the list +of user groups for authorization
Syntax:AuthGroupFile file-path
Context:directory, .htaccess
Override:AuthConfig
Status:Base
Module:mod_authz_groupfile
+

The AuthGroupFile directive sets the + name of a textual file containing the list of user groups for user + authorization. File-path is the path to the group + file. If it is not absolute, it is treated as relative to the ServerRoot.

+ +

Each line of the group file contains a groupname followed by a + colon, followed by the member usernames separated by spaces.

+ +

Example:

+ mygroup: bob joe anne +

+ +

Note that searching large text files is very + inefficient; AuthDBMGroupFile provides a much better performance.

+ +

Security

+

Make sure that the AuthGroupFile is + stored outside the document tree of the web-server; do not + put it in the directory that it protects. Otherwise, clients may + be able to download the AuthGroupFile.
