According to the Apache docs, the default as you have it is to allow
all. Therefore Deny from all is needed.

Hi,
I'm having a small argument with another "sys admin" (ok, newbies sys
admins :P) and i would like to know if you can help, I want to
restrict a dir to only a network (10.254.0.0/24). I'm using this config:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/manual
ErrorLog /var/log/error_log
CustomLog /var/log/access_log common
<Directory "/var/www/manual">
Order deny,allow
Allow from 10.254.0.0/24
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
As you noticed i'm not using in the directory directive the "deny from
all" instruction and that is my doubt: *is it still correct to use it
this way without the "deny from all" or the deny from all is needed
for this to work?*
I tried it and i think it works as is, but my friend is telling me he
always uses deny from all and that it is needed... Apache version is
the latest from 2.0 and all other configs are not touched.
Thanks in advance for your feedback,
