Preventing a country base from accessing website? - Page 2

Hello, I know this thread is a bit old but I found it while browsing for information about the btcentral domain (as it recently spammed a wiki I visit a lot). Anyways... I am no expert on Apache but the code that MakePB provided does look a bit faulty.

Code:

Order Allow,Deny
Deny from 86.136.
Deny from 86.137.
Deny from 86.138.
Deny from 86.139.
Deny from 86.140.
Deny from 86.141.
Allow from all

It looks to me like this is telling Apache that the order of the restrictions is the Allow statements first and the Deny statements come second. That could be throwing things off, regardless of you explicitly calling it Deny and Allow on each line. So...

Code:

Order Deny, Allow
Deny from 86.136.
Deny from 86.137.
Deny from 86.138.
Deny from 86.139.
Deny from 86.140.
Deny from 86.141.
Allow from all

Might fix things.

I think that useful for websites that have made pages for one language and also a different page for another language. good post really useful.

Good point. Thanks for correction. I wrote probably in hurry.

I'll give it a try. At this time, anything would be great considering I want them completely banned from my site from even accessing the forum boards
