Disable access from a website...

BillyConnite · 02-04-2006, 01:55 PM

Hello everyone,

I run an image hosting site, and there is one perosn who can't help but upload huge amounts of porn taking up tonnes of bandwidth... Ive tried banning his IPs but he must be using proxy websites now.

Does anyone know a way to disallow his site to use images off my site on his site. Like hotlink protection, only in CPanel Hotlink protection asks you to enter a list of ALLOWABLE sites, not banned sites...

Anyone know a way through probably .htaccess or something?

Thanks! 100NP$ in it for whoever can help out (thats all I have lol).

Regards, RHett.

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://(www\.)?site\.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://site\.com/ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(jpe?g|gif|bmp|png)$ - [NC, F]

Something like that..

BUT it comes at a price... bandwidth!!!

**Eric** · 02-04-2006, 10:23 PM

Btw...what is the working version? lol, want to see what I got wrong

Hey SV, here's what im using now, almost identical to yours :P:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://(www\.)?kimbinhmai\.net/ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://(www\.)?kimbinhmai\.com/ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(jpe?g|gif|bmp|png)$ images/nohotlink.jpg [L]

Notice how both links have the www. in them, will i need to add this to make sure that it cannot be hotlinked from the domain without www. too do you think?:

Code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://(\.)?kimbinhmai\.net/ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://(\.)?kimbinhmai\.com/ [NC]

Thanks!
Regards, Rhett.
