mod_authz_svn Configuration Directives — Apache configuration directives for configuring path-based authorization for Subversion repositories served through the Apache HTTP Server.
This section briefly describes each Apache configuration directive offered by mod_authz_svn. For an in-depth description of using path-based authorization in Subversion, see the section called “Path-Based Authorization”.
These are the httpd.conf directives
that apply to mod_authz_svn:
AuthzForceUsernameCase Upper|LowerSet to Upper
or Lower to perform case conversion
of the specified sort on the authenticated username
before checking it for authorization. While usernames
are compared in a case-sensitive fashion against those
referenced in the authorization rules file, this
directive can at least normalize variably-cased
usernames into something consistent.
AuthzSVNAccessFile
file-pathConsult file-path for
access rules describing the permissions for paths in
Subversion repository.
AuthzSVNAnonymous On|OffSet to Off to disable two
special-case behaviours of this module: interaction
with the Satisfy Any directive and
enforcement of the authorization policy even when no
Require directives are present.
The default value of this directive is
On.
AuthzSVNAuthoritative On|OffSet to Off to allow access
control to be passed along to lower modules. The
default value of this directive is
On.
AuthzSVNNoAuthWhenAnonymousAllowed On|OffSet to On to suppress
authentication and authorization for requests which
anonymous users are allowed to perform. The default
value of this directive is
On.
