Suppose this: <Location /mainreq> Require group foo </Location> <Location /subreq> Require group bar </Location> If during the processing of /mainreq a subreq is issued to /subreq the other "Require group" must be respected. Of course there also can be another AuthUserFile or so, so that the identity could not be established and the subreq results in a 401. I'd consider that as a configuration error. The configuration change mentioned above means the different Location containers. They are represented as $r->per_dir_config. > I don't think so, because this is a really specific authentication > method, for a special case. > And I don't think that Apache will skip the mod_perl AAA phases, will > it ? Yes, mod_perl handlers are called inside these ap_run_... functions. ap_run_access_checker() is the first of the 3 A's. A PerlAccessHandler is called from this function.
