Dear list,
I would like to get your thoughts on how to implement the following use
case:
We wish to control access to certain URLs based upon some authorisation
scheme (don't worry the question is not about how we set up the
authorisation directives themselves:)) however these URLs fall under the
namespace normally serviced by an external application via JkMount.
e.g.:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName repository.example.com
DocumentRoot "/opt/www/data/repository.example.com" # Contains no
files
<Directory "opt/www/data/repository.example.com">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
JkMount / ajp13_worker
JkMount /* ajp13_worker
...
</VirtualHost>
I would like to apply authentication and authorisation to certain paths that
fall within this virtual host.
i.e.:
Access to the this URL should just be passed on to ajp13 worker and thus the
external Tomcat application to handle:
http://repository.example.com/com/foo/bar/readme.txt
Where as these URLs should be challenged by Apache authnz before being
passed onto ajp and Tomcat
http://repository.example.com/com/foo/private-readme.txt
http://repository.example.com/com/foo/secret/also-private.txt
Is this possible?
Has anyone any suggestions how we might be able to achieve this?
Thanks for the thinking time!
Kind regards,
John
