Hi,

I use Basic Auth to limit access to a web site. This seems to work ok. I noticed though in the logs that the logged in user is not logged:

80.....188 - - [16/Jul/2013:09:56:29 +0200] "GET ..." 200 1844 "...." " ...

I would expect the second - to be replaced by the logged in user.
Strange though that in other log lines the user sometimes appears ...

The doc says, the user is logged if the document is protected. I do protect the whole directory using directory match. Without log in I fail to retrieve the document in question.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

Stefan

Hi,

Ubuntu 12.04
Apache 2.2
PHP / fcgid

pretty standard albeit big config.
Maybe I should add, that in the Authentication where is also a Satisfy Any with the other option being ip based auth:

AuthType Basic
AuthName ..deleted..
AuthUserFile ..deleted..
Require valid-user
Order allow,deny
Allow from ..deleted..
Satisfy any


Though my concern is only when using Basic auth and providing a valid user from an IP not listed in the allow from clause.
