[Asch]

Hi, can someone explain me what this does ??
it 's in an .htaccess file

I know that it should limit acces or something like that but I dont know more ?? :O)

it works with an cgi script...
------------------------------------------
AuthUserFile /dev/null
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName DenyViaWeb
AuthType Basic


<Limit GET>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Limit>
-------------------------------------------

thx

From my understand of .htacess, I think it prevents anyone from accessing the directory content manually, so only the CGI script can read from the directory.
