+ <para>
+ The <replaceable>client</replaceable> option can be either a domain name, an IP address (both full and partial), a <replaceable>network</replaceable>/<replaceable>netmask</replaceable> pair, or <literal>all</literal> for all clients.

- <command>Allow</command> specifies which client can access a given directory. The client can be <command>all</command>, a domain name, an IP address, a partial IP address, a network/netmask pair, and so on. The <command>DocumentRoot</command> directory is configured to <command>Allow</command> requests from <command>all</command>, meaning everyone has access.
