[Helpfull]How to deny acces to website for banned ip`s.

[taZツ]

As the title says.
If you no longer want banned people to view you`r website,forum,registration page and other things you can do it easy.

Go to My Computer/Local Disk C/wamp (depends on what you use)/www (public_html/httdocs).

Find a file called .htacces (if you don`t have one, create one), open it with notepad and insert:

<Limit GET>
order deny,allow
deny from 127.0.0.1 (make sure u change this ip, and use commas to separete each new ip that you add)
</Limit>

Save the file and you`re done.
This will prevent banned ip`s to view your website.

Your also going to want to block proxy IP's, there are plenty of sites that give you long list of major proxy IP's, just do some copy and pasting.

Wouldn't PHP be able to do this?

PHP Code:

<?php function returnIP(){
    $ipParts = explode(".", $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
    if ($ipParts[0] == "165" && $ipParts[1] == "21") {    
        if (getenv("HTTP_CLIENT_IP")) {
            $ip = getenv("HTTP_CLIENT_IP");
        } elseif (getenv("HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR")) {
            $ip = getenv("HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR");
        } elseif (getenv("REMOTE_ADDR")) {
            $ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
        }
    } else {
       return $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
       }
       return $ip;
}

$ch = mssql_query("SELECT * FROM PS_UserData.dbo.BannedIPs");
$ip = returnIP();
if(mssql_num_rows($ch)){
while ($ban = mssql_fetch_assoc($ch)){
if($ip == $ban['banIP'])
{
header("HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized");
header("Location: http://youareanidiot.org/");
exit;
}}}
?>

Yes it would work, but i wonder how many people have PHP knowledge?
I only posted the easyest way to restrict acces to the whole folder.

[-Dizzy-]

not many people i would reckon

[RebeccaBlack]

Not many here care to learn what they use, you're right.
But, I was just pointing out that to add to what you said, no need to get offensive.

P.S. IIS doesn't use the .htaccess or w/e that is. Only Apache does.

This script you can attach at the top of all your scripts.

PHP Code:

<?php 
//you must to replace server data with yours
$Jokerhost = '127.0.0.1';
$Jokerdbuser = 'Shaiya';
$Jokerdbpass = 'Shaiya123';    
     
//you must to have first created table BannedIPs at your SQL database               
$Jokerlink = mssql_connect($Jokerhost,$Jokerdbuser,$Jokerdbpass) or die("Cannot connect to MSSQL server");
$Jokerban = mssql_query("SELECT banIP FROM [PS_UserData].[dbo].[BannedIPs]  ",$Jokerlink);
$i=3;
$ipDeny[0]="111.111.111";
$ipDeny[1]="222.222.222";
$ipDeny[2]="333.333.333";
while($banip=mssql_fetch_array($Jokerban))
 {
    if ( strlen($banip[0])>1)
     {
      $ipDeny[$i]= $banip[0];
      $i++;
     }
 }
if (in_array ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], $ipDeny)) 
{ 
   header("location: http://your site/"); 
   exit(); 
}
 ?>

As you say:

You have to do that, true.
The way i do it is like me 1st post. You only add the ip into the htacces file and it restrict acces to each file.
In this case: website/forum/registration/pvp ranks/ and such.
Its not only the banned ip`s from the game that matters, think at forum too.

Can make any variation. The table BannedIPs can add columns to help distinguish the different IP-addresses. Then small changes in the script to select Moyen only those addresses that you care for your application.
