Subject: [gentoo-user] *Simple* guide to implementing digest-auth combined with IP based whitelist?
Date: Tue, 03 Apr 2012 15:06:58 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F7B4A52.30105@libertytrek.org> (raw)

I've never had a need to protect a site like this so am totally new to it...

I've been reading, and everything says that digest-auth is preferred to 
basic-http-auth (yes, I know that this isn't a very sophisticated level 
of protection, but it is all we need for this site), but is there also a 
way to whitelist certain static IP address so people on those don't get 
prompted for a username/password?

Thanks for any pointers to tfm...
