htaccess – using password OR ip whitelist

by

You can use the Apache “Satisfy” directive.

Here is an example of using it : 

AuthType Basic
AuthName "Please Log In"
AuthUserFile /some/path/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Satisfy any

Access without password is only allowed from 127.0.0.1.

Hope this helps.
