@pcthugDec 31.2006 — #Provided you are running on an Apache-based server, you may use a htaccess file to deny defined IP addresses. Firstly paste the following code into your text-editor of choice: <i> </i>order allow,deny deny from 127.0.0.1 allow from all Now replace the psuedo-ip [FONT=Courier New]127.0.0.1[/FONT] with the IP address you wish to deny access to your site.
Save as [FONT=Courier New].htaccess[/FONT] (yes, no filename just an extension) and upload to your server's root directory.
@felgallDec 31.2006 — #.htaccess isn't an extension, it is a filename without an extension. The . on the front is what tells Linux that it is a hidden file. It is only Windows that gets confused about the . and so you have to specify it as ".htaccess" in order to let windows know not to try to add an extension to it.
@chrismartzDec 31.2006 — #I would suggest using any server side language to block an ip or ip range. You can do it with client-side scripting but that is easy to get around.
