had a better look and changed it to the following

So, is it working now?

This is mine (in httpd.conf):

if i was to use it in .conf file, should i then have it in apaceh.conf ??

Kinda noob in linux world :-)
And will it interfer with other sites hosted on same server if i do it in root ?
Not sure where i can do it or what to do if there are more than 1 site i will protect for this..

no httpd.conf and you have to be "root" to able to access that file

i have a bunch of "apache2" services runing when i do ps -A, but no httpd

and the httpd.conf is more or less empty while the apache2.conf hold all information about the server.... And yes it's as root i try..

Thanks, again, I'm not a coder, but I did what you said and it worked. Now one more question, say I want to allow www.domainx.com, www.domainy.com and www.domainz.com how would I do this?

On another note, does it matter if we put http://domain.com or http://www.domain.com or for that matter http://mparton.domain.com ?

Thanks again, rg sends!

ok, call me an idiot, but can you show me the "whole" code for this scenario,

1. I need to let my domain, plus it's subdomains (example: http://www.domain.com, http://domain.com, http://extra.domain.com).

2. I also need the ability to pass through to other domains, so they can use images off my server. Example, http://www.domainguest1.com, http://www.domainguest2.com, and http://www.domainguest3.com

Again, my apologies, I just don't see what you're explaining. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks, rg sends!
