Apache security question

[JQX]

Hi,

 

I just installed Uniform Server to Windows Server. This server hosts a web page that is available from internet.

 

If I open web browser and type "http://server_ip" it opens the "index of" page and shows one folder (web page folder that this server is hosting) and favicon file. I want to restrict access to this root directory and want to allow access only to this http://server_ip/hosted_web_page. How I can do this?

I figured it out.

 

I added "Options -Indexes" to httpd.conf -file in www -folder and now it says "You don't have permission to access / on this server".

Restricting access to root folder www is configurable from the server configuration menu. First undo any changes you have made httpd.conf these are not required.

 

Read the manual page; Root folder www – Access (general_access_www.html) it provides details for setting root folder access and restricting access using a name/password.

 

View manual page:

From folder UniServer run help.exe – This opens manual in default browser

Left menu click item General – Opens general page

Left menu click item Root folder www Access

All the best

Hi,

 

I tried that already but after that I can no longer access the web page under the root folder anymore.
