directory exception in htaccess

[ticknubbs]

I have been looking all day on how to make an exception for a directory in htaccess with no luck thus far. I have a web directory with htaccess and pass set up however I need to allow all access to two of the directories in that folder without moving them out into another directory.

Here is what I have right now...


<FilesMatch "(location_identification|family_relation)\.php$">
Allow from all
Satisfy any
</FilesMatch>


AuthName "Secure Login"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/myself/public_html/site/.htpasswd
Require valid-user


and I need to make an exception to a directory named 'allow' located within site. I have tired several things with no luck and am looking for a fresh idea. Anybody have any?

These directives can be nested, like html code itself. Seems like that might open up some more granular possibilities....
