which provider is used to authenticate the users for this location.
- Setting the value to <code>On</code> will choose the default provider
- (<code>file</code>). Since the <code>file</code> provider is implemented
- by the <module>mod_authn_file</module> module, you have to make sure,
- that the module is present in the server.</p>
