I am using DNS virtual hosts for students in my senior projects class.
What I want is for each team to have its own password for its own =
directory.
Pre-VHosts, that was no problem, I just put the directory name and =
password into defaults.aut
Now, I have a virtual hosts setup where:
ProjectsTeam08.ewu.edu points to the \Webpages\Team08 directory, etc
This works fine, once I solved some Win 95 network configuration =
problems.
Unfortunately, there appears to be no longer any password protection.
My current setup looks like this:
1. Each team has its own .cfg file that points to its own .aut file:
[Server]
Cgi-bin =3D "C:/Xitami/webpages/team08/cgi-bin"
Hostname =3D "projects.ewu.edu"
Webpages =3D "C:/Xitami/webpages/team08"
[Security]
Admin =3D "0"
Filename =3D "team08.aut"
2. The team's .aut file holds the passwords
# Created by Virtual Host wizard
[/Admin]
admin=3D-
[/setup]
team08=3D"Rj4Qx56M"
3. In defaults.cfg I reference the config files
[Virtual-hosts]
ProjectsTeam08.ewu.edu =3D "team08.cfg"
and the standard .aut file
[Security]
Filename =3D "defaults.aut"
which still holds the passwords from the pre VHosts days
[/team08]
team08=3D"Rj4Qx56M"
Presumably I am not referencing something properly somewhere. I thought =
it might be the [/setup] line in the team .aut file, but I have played =
around with that ( /team08, etc) with no luck. I have gone through the =
help files and my archive of Xitami mailing list messages, with no luck. =
I am going to keep the system offline until I can fix it, but the end of =
the term is coming up. Any idea where else I can look?
Regards
Steve Shervais
