Multi-User Security on *nix using mod_rewrite

numero = 41716
interpreted = N
texte = After reading through the docs on mod_rewrite I believe that it could be used to secure, on a directory or host basis, the usage of the WebDNA Engine based on file extension. This could be a great way to provide standard hosting on the same machine as WebDNA if it really could be made to work. I haven't yet started in on it because I wanted to know if anyone has already tried it. If so, does it work. If not, why not. It seems, as it runs off of regular expression, that explicit denial of any registered extension processed by WebDNA could be rewritten to an error page or the like and that this denial could be either file path based or host header based or both.Any mod_rewrite gurus out there that want to comment?Mike ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
