Description
===========

The access module is used to deny access to files with given trailing path names.

Options
=======

url.access-deny
  Denies access to all files with any of given trailing path names.

  Default: empty

  Example: ::

    url.access-deny = ( "~", ".inc")

  will deny access to all files ended with a tilde (~) or .inc
  such as example~ or example.inc.  Text editors often use a trailing tilde for
  backup files.  And the .inc extension is often used
  for include files with code.

access.deny-all
  Denies access to all files. It should be used with a conditional to limit it (only from lighty 1.5x): ::

    $PHYSICAL["path"] !~ "^/srv/example.org/" {
      access.deny-all = "enable" 
    }

    $PHYSICAL["path"] =~ "(~|\.inc)$" {
      access.deny-all = "enable" 
    }

  directory deny access (1.4x): ::

    $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/libraries" {
      url.access-deny = ("")
    }
