[opencms-dev] Access-Rights for published content of OPENCMS

["Bührle, Martin, FCI1"]

> Hi List,
> 
> 
> I am looking for a solution to protect one of our two content-areas within
> one unique opencms-installation, publishing the two content-areas with
> Tomcat 4.0.1, WARP-Connector, Apache 1.3.x under the following URLs (use
> of DNS-CNAME-Configuration and Apache virtual Hosts):
> 1)
> <servername1>/opencms/opencms/eads-ww/ge_eadsportal/index.html
> 2)
> <servername2>/opencms/opencms/private/index.html   (restricted area)
> 
> We restricted the access to the area 2) by using simple IP-based
> AccessControl from Apache 1.3.x, but anyway external users could see the
> internal content of area 2) by simply using the address-combination
> <servername1>/opencms/opencms/private/index.html 
> because  the content of both areas is stored within one unique database in
> the same OPENCMS-instance.
> 
> 
> Although I know, that I would have a chance with two WARP-Connections,
> each for one of the virtual Apache-hosts, and two different
> OpenCMS-Instances for the content-areas, I want to ask the list, if there
> is another possibility. 
> 
> May be there is a chance by changing the Tomcat-/Apache-Configuration so
> that I have two new URLs pointing to the same OPENCMS-instance???
> This would preventing me from dividing up the actual content into two
> separate OpenCMS-instances.
> I need something like changing
> <servername1>/opencms/opencms/eads-ww/   into
> <servername1>/eads/
> and
> <servername2>/opencms/opencms/private  into
> <servername2>/bu/
> 
> Does anybody have an idea, what to change in httpd.conf, web.xml and
> server.xml (Apache 1.3x / Tomcat 4.0.1 / WARP-Connector-mod_webapp -
> Configuration) to achieve this new OpenCMS-URL-possiblities within one
> OpenCMS-instance?
> 
> Are there other possiblities to provide IP-based access-control for a part
> of the opencms-content?
