Access Control Of Website

I am updating an intranet site and I want the staff to be able to access it from within school freely, but be prompted for a username/password when accessed from outside school.

Can this be done via the .htaccess file?

Cheers

I doubt it as I would think the .htaccess would restrict from internal as well.

I was hoping i could stick some form of ip range in it to allow access from the schools ip range.

Or maybe not:

Apache Week. Using User Authentication

Says that you can set it so that hostname can be used to allow access, so if they are inside the company no username password required but outside it is.

Code:

---

Allow from 10.0.0.0/16
Allow from .school.lea.sch.uk
require valid-user
satisfy any

Cheers guys. Ended up going with the following code. Works a treat.

Code:

---

Require user staff
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from .%schools domain%
  Satisfy any
