RE: Apache configuration

From: pnelson@xxxxxxxxxx

When configuring an Apache server to be migrated from an original HTTP
server, I'm getting an error with a directive that looks like this:

Pass  */tmp *

The job log tells me that Pass is not a valid directive. What has Pass
been replaced with?  The closest thing I can find in Apache.org is
PassEnv. Is that the same thing?

Are you sure it's not "Pass tmp/* *", Paul?

This does both a Map and a Pass, which in Apache terms is an Alias and an
Allow.  In this case, it would map everything in tmp as NOT being in tmp (it
would in effect remove the /tmp) and would then allow it through.

Alias /tmp/ /
<Directory />
  Order deny,allow
  Allow All
</Directory>

This would be close, except that it would allow everything in the root
folder and below to be served.  Typically this is the opposite of a default
Apache configuration.
