AuthzSVNNoAuthWhenAnonymousAllowed

[Mark <ma...@mitsein.net>]

What does this feature do?  There is no doc on it at all that I have
found.  Only a note in the dev mailing list saying it was added.
Reading it literally, it seems like a superflous setting to me.  I
have my conf set like so:
....
                DAV svn
                SVNParentPath /svnroot
                # our access control policy
                AuthzSVNAccessFile /svnroot/.master-authz

                # try anonymous access first, resort to real
                # authentication if necessary.
                Satisfy Any
                Require valid-user

                AuthType Basic
                AuthLDAPAuthoritative on
                AuthName "SourceForge SVN Authentication"
....

With that, I get no prompt for auth when * = r.

Mark,

AuthzSVNNoAuthWhenAnonymousAllowed has exactly the same effect as the 
'Satisfy Any' line in your configuration. The reason it was added is 
because in the next version of apache (2.4) the auth(n/z) code is 
completely rewritten, thereby deprecating the 'Satisfy' keyword.

regards,

Lieven.
