Has this been figured out?

is it possible to use .htaccess as a make-shift ACL?[edit]

I don't know the inter-workings of wikimedia, but if it's using the filesystem directory structure... than it should be possible to use .ht{access,passwd} to implement page restrictions. my first guess is it uses a database. Even then, it should be possible to create users & groups, but then some wikimedia code would be needed for enforcement.

See access control for more stuff on this. Mlibby@mlibby.net 17:06, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
