apache2.conf

lothario · 09-15-2008, 06:32 PM

In "/etc/apache2/apache2.conf" I just added:

Code:

<Directory "/var/www">

Order Allow,Deny

Deny from 192.168.8.34

Allow from all

</Directory>

Then I re-booted the server.
But I am still able to access the files under /var/www from the 192.168.8.34 client.

What am I missing?

I want to block 192.168.8.34 completely from accessing any page on this web server.

You need to switch your order, since you Allow first and Allow allows All, everyone gets in.
Order Deny,Allow

Deny from 192.168.8.34
