Require user based on URL?

  • 772

I'd like to require user user1 when the URL is /foo/user1/*, user user2 when the URL is /foo/user2/*, etc. Is it possible to do this?

For example, I'd like to do something like this:

AliasMatch ^/foo/([^/]+)(/.*)? /home/$1/foo$2
<LocationMatch "^/foo/([^/]+)(/.*)?">
    SSLRequireSSL
    AuthType Basic                                                              
    AuthName "foo"
    AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/htpasswd
    Require user $1
</LocationMatch>

    Assuming files in /home/user1/fooX are owned by user1 you could consider mod_authz_owner and use Require file-owner.

    <Directory /home/*/public_html>
  AuthType Basic
  AuthName "User files"
  AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/htpasswd
  Satisfy All
  Require file-owner
</Directory>
