Modifying custom.conf to lock R12.1 down for restricted access

edited Aug 8, 2014 5:02AM in Technology Stack - EBS (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered

Hi,

In 11.5.10, on various occasions (month end in particular) we make the following modification to our apps.conf file. It's automated.
The change causes the web server to prompt a user for an additional user/pass combination before they can log onto the system normally.
This allows us to lock the system down and only those who have the user/pass combination can logon.

Alias   /OA_HTML/       "/u11/oaprodcomn/html/"
<Location /OA_HTML/>
# modification for special password
  Options -FollowSymLinks
  AllowOverride All
  AuthType Basic
  AuthName Enter_special_username
  AuthUserFile /u11/oaprodcomn/portal/OAPROD_pas1/.htpasswd
  require valid-user
# end of modification
  Order allow,deny
