How To Lock Users Out Of E-Business Suite And Allow APPS access to Specific Users

We could have the requirement to give Apps access to specific users so we can restrict their access by using below:-


 1. Backup and edit the access.conf file (10.1.3 HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/access.conf)

2. Add a list of ip addresses for the users system those can use oracle as per business requiment e.g.

Alias /OA_HTML/ "/u01/jbcomn/html/"
<Location /OA_HTML/>
Order allow,deny
Allow from 10.187.112.232
Allow from 10.187.112.233
Allow from 10.187.112.234
Allow from 10.187.112.235
Allow from 10.187.112.236
Allow from 10.187.112.237
Allow from localhost
Allow from server-apps.sri-astra.com
Allow from server-apps
</Location>

3. Re-start apache

4. Now only those users whose IPs are added in the above will have the apps access.
