.htaccess blocking a port on a directory

Hello.

I've got this virualhost that is accesseble both through http (port 80)and https (port 443).

Yet in that documentroot I have one directory that I only whant to be accessable through https (port 443) and not port 80..

I have OptFollowSymlinks up and running and working perfectly

What I want is this:
/www/mysite/* <-- Accessable from from both p80 and p443
/www/mysite/security/* <---- Only accessable p443

Can I block with /www/mysite/security/.htaccess port 80? And how do I do that?

Does anyone know?=)

This is what I use for an entire domain.. It should work on the subdirectory by adding ReWriteBase /sub... Tell me if it doesn't work.

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /secure
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !443$
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.blahblah.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Code (markup):

 

Is it possible to only do this from the .htaccess file?? The site is realy live and a lot of people on it.. Dont wanna reload the apache..?

 

Yes this is meant to be done within the directory. It should work right away, no restart needed.

I like Terry Pratchet, too.

 

In those instances a "graceful" restart of your httpd will not disconnect people.

And it should not need a restart provided the Override FileInfo is set (otherwise the .htaccess file will be ignored)
