.htaccess

[xug]

I want to ban one proxy, from this proxy I get only one person and he acts like hell on my board.

I hear from several people that I can do it with .htaccess, but I do not know how and can find the exact info for this.

the proxy looks like this : d93e4a5F1.host.name.net

would be an .htaccess with the following lines enough to keep this proxy of my site and grand access for all others :

order allow,deny
allow from all
deny from .host.name.net

If this is right, must there be a .(dot) for host yes or no ?

Please help me on this.

[Logician]

order allow,deny
deny from host.name.net
allow from all

will ban users with any ending hostname "host.name.net"..

That is both d93e4a5F1.host.name.net, xxxx.host.name.net or yyyy.xxxx.host.name.net will be banned..

However I dont think banning users via .htaccess is a good idea. You may have only 1 user from that host at the moment but by banning him in .htaccess, you ban your prospective members too..

I were you, I would regard hacks like Hell-ban
