Is it possible to have an .htaccess/.htpasswd access control setup for a given directory, but if they are from a specific IP address, bypass the login/password authentication?
I know you can do something like this in the .htaccess file:
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 000.000.000.000
But if you add something along these lines:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "restricted area"
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
require valid-user
Then it prompts for the password. Is there any way to do an if/else type setup, or some other solution so that users as a given IP (or set of IPs) don't get prompted for a password, but everyone else does?
For versions 2.2.X you can use the following...
AuthUserFile /var/www/mysite/.htpasswd
AuthName "Please Log In"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
Order allow,deny
Allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
satisfy any
Obviously replace the path to your usersfile and the ip address which you would like to bypass the authentication.
Further explanation of the specifics, can be found at: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html
If you use apache >=2.4, it would be something like this:
<If "%{REMOTE_ADDR} != '127.0.0.1'">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "restricted area"
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
require valid-user
</If>
For more info take a look at the docs.
I am running Apache/2.2.16 (Debian), and had a similar problem, I solved it like this:
(This can be run in both an .htaccess file or directly in the virtualhost under <Location/>)
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/somesite/.htpasswd
AuthName "No entry, unless"
Require Valid-user
Allow from x.x.x.x
Allow from x.x.x.x
Satisfy Any
I allowed entry without password from two different ip, and the rest must enter password to enter.
Apache 2.4 compatible:
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /www/.htpasswd
AuthName "Protected Area"
<RequireAny>
Require ip 1.2.3.4
Require valid-user
</RequireAny>
See the migration guide Upgrading to 2.4 from 2.2 for more examples.
If you use apache >=2.4, and you want to allow a set of IP, as asked in initial question, you can do it like this :
<If "-R '192.168.0.0/24'">
Require all granted
</If>
<ElseIf "-R '192.168.1.0/24'">
Require all granted
</ElseIf>
<Else>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "restricted area"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/.htpasswd
require valid-user
</Else>
In addition to the answer of j5Dev:
# Interne IP-Adressen
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "^127\.0\.0\.1$" IsIntern
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "^192\.168" IsIntern
# .. add more IP addresses or ranges here
# Authentication, wenn nicht intern
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
AuthName "restricted area"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
Order allow,deny
Allow from env=IsIntern
satisfy any

Thanks to some wonderful people here at stack overflow I got my authentication working to demand a password at dev.website.com using this script:
SetEnvIfNoCase Host ^.*dev\.website\.com$ require_auth=true
AuthUserFile /var/www/vhosts/website.com/.htpasswd
AuthName "Password Protected"
AuthType Basic
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Satisfy any
Require valid-user
Allow from env=!require_auth
I also want it to demand a password on: myname.website.com mynamedev.website.com & devmyname.website.com. Basically on anything but "www.website.com" and "website.com".
What is the simplest way to do that?
I would have thought you could do the following
SetEnv require_auth=true
SetEnvIfNoCase Host ^www\.website\.com$ require_auth=false
SetEnvIfNoCase Host ^website\.com$ require_auth=false
AuthUserFile /var/www/vhosts/website.com/.htpasswd
AuthName "Password Protected"
AuthType Basic
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Satisfy any
Require valid-user
Allow from env=!require_auth
The first line setting the default case to be authentication is required, the second two lines being the specific cases where authentication is not required.
Try :
#set env "auth" only for subdomains
SetEnvIfNoCase host ^((?!www\.).+)\.website\.com$ auth=1
#auth
AuthUserFile /var/www/vhosts/website.com/.htpasswd
AuthName "Password Protected"
AuthType Basic
#Here is where we allow/deny
Order Deny,Allow
Satisfy any
Deny from all
Require user valid-user
Allow from env=!auth
I have a secured website. The complete website is secured so, regardless of the page you ask, you have to enter the user/password.
I did this with this code in the htaccess
AuthUserFile /path/.htpass
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Website"
Require valid-user
Now, i want to add another authentification for a specific url. So i tried this :
SetEnvIf Request_URI ^/myurl require_auth=true
AuthUserFile /path/.htpmyrul
AuthName "Myurl"
AuthType Basic
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Satisfy any
Require valid-user
Allow from env=!require_auth
It worked for myurl, but the problem is that this code "cancelled" the first code! So now, my website only ask for authentification when i visit myurl, but if i visit any other url, the website doesn't ask for authentification
Is it possible to have both authentifications work together ?
Thanks
Well you could do this.
In the main root of your htaccess file put this.
SetEnvIf Request_URI "/myurl" require_auth
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
AuthName "Webiste"
AuthType Basic
Require valid-user
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from env=require_auth
Satisfy any
Then create a htaccess file inside myurl folder and put this example inside it.
AuthUserFile /path/to/other/.htpasswd
AuthName "myurl"
AuthType Basic
Require valid-user
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Satisfy any
This should allow you to use another htpasswd for your sub folder.
I'm using the following code to block users on my staging subdomain.
AuthName "PRIVAT"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /var/www/mydomain.com/.htpasswd
require valid-user
Since I'd like to use the same .htaccess for staging and production I'd like to add an condition if HTTP_HOST = staging.mydomain.com so that only the staging environment is password prodected? Is this possible?
Good News: Yes it is possible :-)
Make use of mod_setenvif directive.
SetEnvIfNoCase Host ^staging\.mydomain\.com$ SECURED
AuthName "PRIVAT"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /var/www/mydomain.com/.htpasswd
require valid-user
Satisfy any
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
Deny from env=SECURED
I have a language specific subdomain that points to the same dir as the root as my site. I use PHP to detect it and show the language.
I wish to set an htpasswd on this subdomain only. Keep in mind that there is no physical directory specific to this subdomain. Therefore the statement will be in the same htaccess as the root of my site.
I need htaccess to do this :
if request is mysubdomain.domain.com
AuthUserFile /www/.htpasswd
AuthName "Locked"
AuthType Basic
Thanks
This should work:
AuthUserFile /www/.htpasswd
AuthName "Locked"
AuthType Basic
Require valid-user
SetEnvIf Host yourdomain.com secure_content
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
Deny from env=secure_content
Satisfy Any
I was on the same route as #Anders Lindahl but apparently there is no "not" in SetEnvIf so I had do change it to allow from all and deny the ones with the env-var set.
His solution works too but you have to SetEnv no-auth-required 1 first and then let the !no-auth-required unset it (that's what the ! does)
This is untested, but might work or give you hints on what to lookup in the Apache documentation:
SetEnvIf Host ^mysubdomain.domain.com !no-auth-required
AuthUserFile /www/.htpasswd
AuthName "Locked"
AuthType Basic
Require valid-user
Allow env no-auth-required
Satisfy Any
SetEnv doesn't seem to work for me. I tried this in my .htaccess:
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr ^192\.168\.0$ ip_ok
<IfDefine !ip_ok>
AuthName "Guest Login"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /opt/lampp/lib/ok_users/guests.users
require valid-user
</IfDefine>
and I had to provide username/password credentials even though my ip is 192.168.0.10 and the server (centos5 / xampp for linux 1.6.8a) is 192.168.0.1
So I tried this:
SetEnv ip_ok
<IfDefine !ip_ok>
AuthName "Guest Login"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /opt/lampp/lib/ok_users/guests.users
require valid-user
</IfDefine>
but setenv does not set ip_ok, and I still get challenged.
Then I tried this:
SetEnv ip_ok
<IfDefine ip_ok>
AuthName "Guest Login"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /opt/lampp/lib/ok_users/guests.users
require valid-user
</IfDefine>
and I don't get challenged. Therefore IfDefine is working.
Any ideas why I can't get SetEnv and SetEnvIf to work?? I've googled and read but can't crack it.
<IfDefine> doesn't work like you're thinking. It examines parameters passed to httpd at startup via -Dparameter (or Define in Apache 2.3), not the environment variables.
That's OK though, you should be able to do what you want like this instead:
Order allow,deny
AuthName "Guest Login"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /opt/lampp/lib/ok_users/guests.users
Require valid-user
Allow from 192.168.0
Satisfy Any
TheSatisfy directive, when set to Any, allows you to be granted access if you pass the host verification, or if you've supplied the password.
