如何使用.htaccess拒绝主机发布到我的服务器

Question

I have a host posting using curl to my server where I held posted info.

now this is the host drops.gamekey.sa.com

I tried this

Order Deny,Allow
Deny from drops.gamekey.com

And this

Order Deny,Allow
Deny from gamekey.sa.com

And this

Order Deny,Allow
Deny from 192.185.48.181

nothing seems to work, and I did this to check if it is working,

Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all

And it works. But what is the point of denying all. I want this specific website.

this website gamekey.sa.com is hosted at hostgator.com if that any relevant to the subject.

Answer 1

What is your Allow directive?

If Allow from all , when using Order Deny,Allow , any host will also match the Allow from all directive and will be allowed, as stated in Apache's manual:

Deny,Allow First, all Deny directives are evaluated; if any match, the request is denied unless it also matches an Allow directive. Any requests which do not match any Allow or Deny directives are permitted.

That's why I would rather use the Allow,Deny order in this way:

Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
Deny from 192.185.48.181

Allow,Deny First, all Allow directives are evaluated; at least one must match, or the request is rejected. Next, all Deny directives are evaluated. If any matches, the request is rejected. Last, any requests which do not match an Allow or a Deny directive are denied by default.
