Restricting Access to Specific BU Individuals
When to use
Use this code when you want a file to be viewed only by specific individuals in the BU community, such as a team or committee. Visitors will be prompted to give their BU login name and Kerberos password when they try to view files restricted in this way.
Note: This is not a practical method of restricting access to a large number of individuals. See Restricting by Status and Restricting by Department.
CODE EXAMPLE:
AuthType weblogin
<Limit GET POST>
require user alias
</Limit>
NOTES:
- Copy and paste this code as outlined in Protect Your Subdirectory. You must modify the code.
- Replace “alias” with the individual’s BU alias. To find an individual’s alias, search the Electronic Directory by their name. Their alias is their login name (the portion of their e-mail address that comes before the @).
- You can limit access to several individuals. Simply add additional “require user alias” lines below the first one.
EXAMPLE:
To restrict access to Susan Mix, Ron Yeany, and Richard Mendez, you would use this exact code:
AuthType weblogin
<Limit GET POST>
require user smix
require user ryeany
require user mendez
</Limit>
