sending visitor to a different page from an IP

[Paullas]

Hi

Does anyone know if it is possible using htaccess that if a certain IP address lands on the site i can show them a different page for example welcome.php page.

Thanks

Something like this should do it :

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^99\.888\.777\.66$
RewriteRule ^askedforpage\.html /redirecttopage.html [R,NC,L]

I've never done it this way, always used php to detect it so its easier to update but this appears to be what you need.

Thanks guys just what i needed to stop a threatening company visiting my site.

Don't you consider they'll be smart enough to ask someone else to take a look at it from an IP address range you're not currently aware of? Are you adding in all of Nominet's IP ranges at the same time?

Could you give me a list of Nominet's IP ranges please.

I would have thought trying to prevent a company visiting your site (and it is incredibly easily got around by any online proxy free to use) would only compound any potential guilt or culpbility? I'm not saying you're in the wrong just it doesn't seem a very reliable prevention.

Hi Rob.

I agree its very easy to get around but it is more of spammers than anything tbh.

I am not trying to block Nominet or genuine companies but doing some testing with unwanted visitors to different pages.
