CGI htaccess File?

[#1]

Hi, I want to block all ip ranges except for one, how do I do this and where in my cgi space (which folder) would I need to place the file (I want to block access to all of it)
I have tries with a script I use on another cgi server but it didn't work on Plusnets
TIA

You should be able place a .htaccess in the root folder of your cgi space, have a look here if your current one doesn't work.

Blocking of IPs via htaccess has never worked as far as I remember and several people have tried in the past. It certainly won't block access to php files.

Thanks for the advice, I'll give it a try later as I cant get on from work. I was trying....

AuthType Basic

deny from all
allow from XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
