Summary
This module provides authorization capabilities so that
authenticated users can be allowed or denied access to portions
of the web site. mod_authz_user grants
access if the authenticated user is listed in a Require user
directive. Alternatively Require valid-user can be used to
grant access to all successfully authenticated users.
The Require Directives
Apache's Require
directives are used during the authorization phase to ensure that
a user is allowed to access a resource. mod_authz_user extends the
authorization types with user and valid-user.
Since v2.4.8, expressions are supported within the user require directives.
Require user
This directive specifies a list of users that are allowed to gain access.
Require user john paul george ringo
Require valid-user
When this directive is specified, any successfully authenticated user will be allowed to gain access.
Require valid-user
