The Require Directives

    Apache's Require
    directives are used during the authorization phase to ensure that
    a user is allowed to access a resource.  mod_authz_user extends the
    authorization types with user and valid-user.
    

    Since v2.4.8, expressions are supported
    within the user require directives.

Require user

    This directive specifies a list of users that are allowed to gain
    access.

Require valid-user

    When this directive is specified, any successfully authenticated
    user will be allowed to gain access.

    Require valid-user
