Hi,

I use Apache-ssl 1.3 (Debian-Linux). When I setup SSLVerifyClient in
httpd.conf it works fine but applies to whole webserver. I'd like to
restrict certificate verification only to one directory. When I put as is
(SSLVerifyClient 2 and so on) in the .htaccess file - apache-ssl says:

#SSLVerifyClient not allowed here
# failed!

It desn't work any better when I put it in <Directory /www/test> section.
How shall I use SSLVerifyClient within .htaccess file with apache-ssl?

Thx in advance.

Not an option I've used, but, have you tried puttion it in a <LOCATION>
directive?
i.e. if you are restricting http://foo/here/ -

<LOCATION /here/>
SSLVerifyClient...
</LOCATION>

Still 'SSLVerifyClient' not allowed here either in htacces or httpd.conf
