22 Access based on IP address works from .htaccess with Files directive:
23
24 <Files *>
25 Require ip 10.0.0.109
26 </Files>
27
28 But it doesn't read AuthType Basic, it doesn't ask me for any password.
29
30 AuthName "restricted stuff"
31 AuthType Basic
32 AuthUserFile "/etc/apache2/users"
33 require user webmaster
34
35 It seems to me Apache 2.4 is very limited what can, and can not go into
36 .htaccess.
