Region Commands
For example, the command in the following directive denies access to any client
making a request for an object below the directory /admin:
Region /admin/* {
Deny
}
DenyHost [-noexist] host-pattern ...
The DenyHost command returns an “access denied” message if a web client’s
host or IP address matches one of the specified host patterns
(host-pattern...). If the web client’s host name or IP address matches, no
additional commands within the directive are evaluated. In specifying a host
pattern, you can use the special matching characters listed in Table A-5 on
page A-41.
If you specify the -noexist option, the DenyHost command returns a “not found”
message instead of an “access denied” message.
For example, the following command denies access to all objects on the server for
any hosts from the domain server.org:
Region * {
DenyHost *.server.org
}
DirectoryIndex
The DirectoryIndex command enables automatic generation of directory
indexes. If a request refers to a directory for which there is no existing index, an
index of the files in the directory is generated automatically.
For example, the command in the following directive enables automatic index
generation for requests for any directories under the directory /personal:
Region /personal/* {
DirectoryIndex
}
DisableCloseNotify
The DisableCloseNotify command prevents the iTP Secure WebServer from
sending a close-notify alert before closing an SSL 3.0 connection.
Use this Region command if your browser is known to hang when it receives
connection termination alerts, and you therefore want to disable such alerts.
By default, close-notify alerts are sent before closing an SSL 3.0 connection.
