Re: [mod-security-users] Apache Regular Expressions

[Fred S. <fr...@me...>]

Hi,

As far as I know, you can't do this in apache.  The way the Files or 
FilesMatch directive works, its logic won't support a logical not (its 
matching mechanism only gets triggered by a match).

Modsecurity does support the "!" as the inversion operator, so it would be 
fairly easy to construct

<Location /foo>
SecFilterSelective REQUEST_URI !members
</Location>

I've only been using modsec for a few days now, so if there's a way to do 
it more elegantly, feel free to correct me.
