You don't say how it fails, but I would assume ( perhaps incorrectly ) that 
Location
directives are like Aliases, Apache will take the first one that matches. So you might try switching the order of the directives.

that'll be $.02  :)

Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cascading Location directives


Hello,

i cannot get a solution. One more try to get help from you.

What i want is authenticate everybody who is accessing my website, but
no authentication if URL starts with /public (by the way, the URLs are 
completely virtual and have no physical analogy):

 <Location ~ "^/">
   Order deny,allow
   Deny from all
   Allow from .myhost.com
   AuthType Basic
   AuthName "Tell me..."
   AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/.htpasswd
   AuthGroupFile /etc/apache2/.htgroups
   Require group admins
   Satisfy Any
 </Location>
 <Location ~ "^/public">
   Order deny,allow
   Allow from all
   Satisfy Any
 </Location>

I've tried a lot of different combinations, but this one looks like the
clearest to me. But it is not working at all :(

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Norman
