Apache config question

syphon00 · 09-06-2002, 09:54 AM

I'm running the latest ver of Apache on Redhat 7.3 pro
at the bottom of the main config window there is a
place to edit avaliable addresses.

currently it says all available addresses on port 80
I understand what that means don't really know how it works
what I need to do is make it so that it'll only allow a range
of ip's to view the site since it'll be an internal site for my company

let's say I want it to allow ip's ranging from
170.140.85.22 - 170.140.85.100
how do I add that?

thanks

When ever I go into webmin I have config icons one of which I can use to edit which IP's can access the server.

The access control can be done Directory by Directory.

Each Directory has an entry in the httpd.conf file
<Directory>
Order allow,deny
allow from
deny from
</Directory>

See http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/howto/auth.html for how to use it.
I don't know which configuration tool you are using, but editing the file directly works,
then restart the httpd server.
