Description

In Rudder, URL under /api/* are REST api that allows to do a lot of thing but do not require authentication if rudder-web.properties property rudder.rest.allowNonAuthenticatedUser is set to true (default).

But we want to allow access to these URL only from localhost.

=> change Apache configuration to forbid that !

Validating this functional review, even though this solution is less good than desired: we really should have an authentification system for the API tied in with Rudder's auth system. For now, you have to rely on Apache as a proxy to manage access to the API from other machines than localhost.
