Getting a web page to have private or protected access.
It is possible to protect some or all of the pages of your WWW space if you consider that their access should not be public.
Currently, the server supports two types of page protection:
1.- PAGES WWW ACCESS RESTRICTED TO CERTAIN USERS
This service allows you to protect a web space so that your pages are only accessible by people who have an account at the university. It is possible to specify which users among all those in the university can access. You can define several spaces, each accessible to your own group of users.
Procedures for the configuration of the service:
require user upepe juanjp
require user decal
if the .htaccess file exists, only the users indicated in this way will have access to the page. The .htaccessfile may be different for each of the "private ..." directories that you have.
Note: In MS-Windows, the best way to create a ".htaccess" file is to use the "notepad" program, making sure not to put the extension ".txt" when saving the file.
Password changes
The valid password to access the protected pages is the password that the authorized user has at all times, unless it has been changed on the same day, in which case, the new password goes into effect the next day for access to protected pages , having to use the old one until then.
2.- WWW PAGES PROTECTED BY A PASSWORD
This service allows you to protect a web space so that your pages are only visible to people who know a certain name / password pair.
Conditions of service:
Any user of the official WWW server of the university can request that a "subpage" (subdirectory or subfolder) of their WWW space on the server be protected by name / password. A full WWW space can be protected, although it is not recommended.
In order for a user to request the protection of a subspace, it must be within the user's personal page or within a group page for which the user is primarily responsible.
Note: In this service, only one user / password pair per protected area is provided; that is, all the users of the space share name / password.
