subversion with https...

[Screaming Eagle <te...@gmail.com>]

All,
I am using svnauth, one of the feature it has is access perm per directory.
I have so far, for example:
[/]
* = r
[/dir1]
* =
andy = rw
This works. But I want to be able to deny access to all and explicitly give
access. For example
[/]
* =
[dir1]
andy = rw
Would this work?  It doesn't appear to be working for me. Maybe I am doing
something wrong, like the synthax is not correct.

Any idea?  Thanks.

except that needs to be [/dir1]   IIRC

andy = rw

Yeah, this works for me as well. But I would like to take a not allow stance
unless otherwise specify.  Has anyone gotten this to work? Deny /, but
specifically allow users to subdir [dir1]. Any idea?  Thanks.

no, it is right. In your case 'andy' has read/write access to [dir1]
but he is not able to see [dir1] if he wants to browse [/]. He has to
access it directly.

I'm using it in a similary way, though everybody has read access to
[/] so it's much easier for the users to find their own directory.
But you must not forget to deny access to every created sub directory,
e.g.
[/]
*     = r

[dir1]
*    = 
andy = rw

So everybody is able to read [/] but is not allowed to go deeper into
all the listed directories which do not belong to him.
