apache == acces.conf

Hello,

I am experimenting with Apache and i only want acces for a few ip-adresses

Linux Redhat 8 is my operating system
and this is a part of the acces.conf file (container)

<Directory /var/www/html>
order deny, allow
deny from all
allow from 62.xxx.x.xx, xx.xxx.xx.x, xxx.x.xx.xx
</Directory>


I used this container in the acces.conf file and after this configuration
62.xxx.x.x. was not be able to acces my webserver

I thought that only the ip-adresses could have acces on my apache-webserver
after change the acces.conf file , but absolutly nobody was able to acces
the webserver

my firewall is very simple at te moment , it is a standard firewall under
linux redhat version 8, - medium - (the startposition, i gave the www and
the ftpserver acces for the firewall.
before i changed my acces.conf file everone had acces whit the standard
firewall.
= i did not changed my firewallrules, i only changed my acces.conf file

how can help me to resolve my problem.

greets,
M@rinu$

sorry, for my English.

I don't use deny and allow, however I do see some syntax errors.
There should not be a space between "deny," and "allow" in the "order"
directive. In the "allow" directive there should not be commas, just
spaces.

Try it as:

<Directory /var/www/html>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 62.xxx.x.xx xx.xxx.xx.x xxx.x.xx.xx
</Directory>

Change "order deny, allow" to "order allow, deny" and it will work. The way
you have it now means that the deny rule is checked first, and since it says
"deny from all", it won't even look at the allow rule at all.

Trying reading the documentation before making such a blatantly wrong
statement.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod...ess.html#order

Particular attention to where it says:

Note that in all cases every Allow
and Deny statement is evaluated.

======================

Thanks Ken and Juhani Mäkelä
that you helped me to resolve my problem whit the syntax (indeed , i made a
mistake in the syntax)

and the directive, it was written in a wrong order. I changed it to

<Directory /var/www/html>
order allow,deny
allow from 62.xxx.x.xx xx.xxx.xx.x xxx.x.xx.xx
deny from all
</Directory>
