redirection

[Lionel]

I am using an .htaccess directive to protect entire folders, allowing access only to a range of IP within the intranet.

Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 192.168.2.0/24
ErrorDocument 403 /redirect.php

I'd like to do the same for one vb file: register.php. Placing the code below requires that I would have to put in 250 IP.

$ipaddy = getenv ("REMOTE_ADDR");
if ($ipaddy != "the ip") {
header("location:http://site.com/page.htm");
}

Is there an easy way to do it in PHP?

Pretty much what you did would work, but you can skip one step.

i just re-read your post and to do it on just register.php in vbulletin,


Place this into your phpinclude_start template.

if(getenv('REMOTE_ADDR') != 'IP ADDRESS' AND THIS_SCRIPT == 'register')
{
    header('Location: good.html');
}

That does not work at all. Mine does. My problem is I'd have to do it for 250 IP

[Lionel]

never mind... I did it with .htaccess

If you want to only allow a certain IP-range, do this:

if(strpos($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'],'123.123.123')!==false) {
   // proceed
} 

Note the !== operator is intentional since != won't work as expected.

it is a thousand times easier to use .htaccess and 100% foolproof

Well, you wanted a PHP-solution, I gave you one.

Thanks, I really appreciate it.
