Hi,
I have PHP application hosted in Apache 2.2.17
The php application exists under Apache2.2\htdocs\myPHP
Inside Apache2.2\htdocs\myPHP, I have a .htaccess file
| Code: |
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 203.99.213.16
|
But that is not effectively blocking users.
I wish to give access to users coming from only a specifc IP address (my work location public IP)
But I can access from home too (that is some other IP) .... in other words .htaccess file is not blocking unauthorized access.
Any clues? |

Did you check the IP that is in the access log? IN worst case make a php script with
| Code: |
<?php
echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
?>
|
and see which IP is shown.
Is the .htaccess working? What is AllowOverride set to? |
