Subject: [users@httpd] Alias and Files directive

Hi all,
I'm using Apache 1.3.26 on RH 7.2.

I have the following settings in my httpd.comf
############################
.....

<Files ~ "^\.ht|config.inc">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
    Satisfy All
</Files>

...

Alias /test "/home/myUser/web"
<Location /test>
    Options -MultiViews -Indexes FollowSymlinks IncludesNoExec

    <Limit GET >
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Limit>
</Location>
...
############################

But I can still access a file named config.inc under /home/myUser/web/
directory but not if the config.inc is under /usr/local/httpd/htdocs/.

How do I ensure that the Files directive settings applies to the destination
of the Alias directive? I.e. I want the config.inc to be inaccessible.

Many thanks,
Al.
