## Anonymous_Authoritative

Syntax: Anonymous_Authoritative on | off
Default: `Anonymous_Authoritative off`
Context: directory, .htaccess
Override: AuthConfig
Status: Extension
Module: mod_auth_anon

When set 'on', there is no fall-through to other authorization methods. So if a userID does not match the values specified in the `Anonymous` directive, access is denied.

Be sure you know what you are doing when you decide to switch it on. And remember that it is the linking order of the modules (in the Configuration / Make file) which details the order in which the Authorization modules are queried.
