Subject: Re: apache configuration, relax Auth restriction on 1 file?
I figured this out. The 'Satisfy' directive applied to the 1 file I
wanted to open up was what I needed. In case anyone has similar
issues, here's what I did...

# main config very restrictive
<Directory /var/www/restricted>
SSLRequireSSL
AuthName "Restricted"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /var/www/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
Require user Restricted
</Directory>

# relaxed for 1 script
<Files /var/www/restricted/open.php>
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
Satisfy Any
</Files>

Merry Christmas, Happy Hannakah!
