Thank you both for yor replies - but I dont have the time or desire to
become an expert or to trawl through reams of documentation - If I did I
wouldnt need to ask here.

I've been told this is a simple task ...

Can someone just tell me what file to create - what to put in it where to
put the file and anything else that might have an imp-act.

thanks

Tooley

This blocks ip ranges for most of eastern europe & beyond (we had some
band of Russian hackers & this was a last ditch way to boot them...
content is only local relevance anyways):

<Limit GET>
order allow,deny
allow from all
deny from 62.133
deny from 81.30
deny from 195.70
</Limit>

Put it in a plain text file named .htaccess at your root. You may
already have one, if so, edit that. You may have trouble creating such a
file name, just rename it with your ftp program after uploading or try
saveas from your editor.

I think you've just poisoned the well here. Why should anybody want
to help you when you clearly don't want to help yourself?

So you want somebody else to do the heavy lifting so you can just
slide on by? I suggest you start RTFM, 'cause I don't think
anybody here's going to lift a finger for you.

Because this is a newsgroup and that is what newsgroups are for.
They are not for self rightous idiots like you to spout off in.

IF there was any "heavy lifting" no - this is a simple plug and go task

Clearly bob Melson has his head stuck so far up his own backside he
doesnt know what planet he's on. One can only wonder what level of help
Rio Grande MicroSolutions give to their "customers" assuming they have
any left.


Like I said - I dont have the time right now - If you're not capable of
helping keep your time wasting gob shut and just go away.

Clearly, Took, you're totally clueless. Newsgroups are
certainly there to provide help, but only if you show
that you've tried - and failed - to solve your own problem.
By saying "I don't have the time or desire", you've
demonstrated you haven't tried to help yourself - so why
should the folks here provide unpaid-for help for you?

Same thing with "...just tellme what file to create - what
to put in it ... and anything else..." You've obviously
not done your home work - just want to sit back and have
some kind soul do your work for you.

Attitude is all. Getting snotty when somebody points out
that you can't expect folks to use their own time to solve
a problem YOU are unwilling to put time and effort into is
really counter-productive.

So sue me, twerp.
