quick test, either read through the /etc/init.d/apache (sometimes httpd)
startup script or start apache manually.

apache -f config_file
sometimes
httpd -f config_file

-f as you should have guessed forces the config file to use.

I agree with Tom. Sometimes apache uses the httpd.conf in /etc/httpd/

Just a shot in the dark, but make sure Apache is using the right config 
file.

Hello,
I'm using Apache/2.0.52 on Fedora Core 3. I've copied the configuration file 
of the previous apache's version on a Redhat, as I do everytime when 
upgrading to a new version of Apache (I configured only the new httpd.conf 
manually), and now the problem is that none of the security measures is 
working, I'm bypassing all of them (.htaccess and ip list specification).

The mod_access module is enabled.

In my httpd.conf, I have:

AllowOverride All

<Directory /www/html/directory/rzone>
        Order Allow,Deny
        Allow from  10.0.10.
        Deny from all
</Directory>



My .htaccess is:
AuthType Basic
AuthName Welcome
AuthUserFile /www/html/directory/rzone/.htmdp

<Limit GET POST>
        require valid-user

        Order Allow,Deny
        Allow from  10.0.10.
        Deny from all
</Limit>

When I was desprate, I've configured the access file as follow:

Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all

and I still have access to the web site.

Any idea ?
