OK, I have a list for a specific country which I wanna block via apache conf (order allow/deny), thats OK, but I want if somebody from the blocked list tries to get to this website to get redirected to specific index file , lets say index2.php

Are you using something like that?

Code:

 order allow,deny
 allow from all
 deny from 111.111.
 deny from 222.222.
 deny from 333.333.

If that's the case, you can use mod_rewrite:

Code:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^111\.111\.$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^222\.222\.$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^333\.333\.$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index2.php
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}/index2.php [L]
