apache - .htaccess: how to restrict access to a single file by IP?

Question

I've look all over, but keeps running into same info that talks about directory level IP restriction, which usually looks something like this:

Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 123.123.123.123

Is it possible to have same type of access restriction tied to a page/document?

Answer 1

This will allow either someone from IP 127.0.0.1 or logged as a valid user. Stick it either in your config or .htaccess file.

    <Files learn.php>
        Satisfy any
        Order deny,allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from 127.0.0.1

        AuthType Basic
        AuthName "private"
        AuthUserFile /var/www/phpexperts.pro/.htpasswd
        AuthGroupFile /dev/null
        Require valid-user
    </Files>

IP Alone:

    <Files learn.php>
        Order deny,allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from 127.0.0.1
    </Files>

That definitely answers your question.
