Hotlink Protection Allow Myself
Aug 15, 2007Is there a way to enable hotlink protection so that when I edit a page from my computer the pictures from the server display from my server but my site is still protected from other hotlinking. My intent is to make it easier for someone to edit there page.(i know I could just reupload image files but I was trying to think of a way to make it easier for someone else) I thought adding my ip address to the cpanel hotlink protection enabler would do the trick but it hasn't.
View 4 Replies View RelatedPlesk And Hotlink Protection
Sep 27, 2007I have a plesk panel and i had a look for hotlink protection but unfortunately couldn`t find the proper option.
I guess there is a hotlink protection at windows version of plesk but not at linux one. I have a linux server.
Also i have a question about hotlinks also, one of my customer has a site that it uses too much bandwith like 600 gb at a month. It is an education related site and site is html.
And i am having some high load issues. When i check apache-status it shows %90 of the connections for that site. But i cant be sure that if it site really makes high load on server because like i told site is html. Also would like to know if server get s load for example if visitor wants to download something from site.
Because visitors are usually downloading zip, mp3 and those kind of files and i dont know if that many download cause the high load.
Also will it reduce the load of the server if i put hotlink protection to that site because of chance for other sites to leech files from this site?
Edit : If there isn`t any option for hotlink protection at Plesk panel how can i enable hotlink protection. Maybe using htaccess, but i would be glad if you can provide hotlink protection code also
Hotlink Protection For Zip And Rar Files
Apr 28, 2008One of the sites at my server is using over resource and causing slowdown to other sites. Because even i am still waiting for my in/out traffic graph, i guess leechers are giving link to those files from other websites and directly downloading from my server.
As a result, site is using around 1.5 tb of bandwith. It was not a big issue before but now server connection is 10 mbps, it was 100 mbps at old server.
So we have 2 options at this point, upgrading connection or activating hotlink for files.
But i don´t really know how to protect .zip and .rar files being downloaded from other sites by direct link to file. I tried hot link protection at cpanel. It is working well for image files, but when i add zip and rar files to protection list, nothing changed. I can still download the file by clicking direct link from other site.

HotLink Protection Doesn't Work With IE
May 12, 2008i tried to create .htaccess file to protect hotlinking ; it's worked perfect with Firefox but can't work with IE. Here's my .htaccess file:
Code:
RewriteEngine on
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName domain.com
AuthUserFile www est.htpasswd
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^[url] [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^[url] [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^[url] [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^[url] [NC]
RewriteRule .*.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|zip)$ [url] [R,NC]
If using Firefox and download a .zip file from my site it'll work but if use Internet Explore it'll only download redirect html file instead.
HotLink Protection In CPanel.. Understanding The Wording Correctly
Jan 24, 2008I am setting up the HotLinking access in cPanel for one of my accounts and don't understand the wording of this section.
It first has the list where you put in the domains that you want to allow hotlinking for.
Then below that it has an input that says, "Extensions to allow:". For this input, does that mean extensions to allow for EVERYONE, or just the domains listed in the section above?
You think they'd be clearer on that in the documentation, but they aren't. Help on this is greatly appreciated.

May 24, 2007I have a small office and one of the workers seems to spend too much time surfing the net. I thought of blocking his internet access completely, but I don't think that's the best way to do this, since he will think he's being singled out.
What I'd like to do instead, is to throttle his computer's net speed so that it comes to a crawl. I know some switches do this, but is there a software solution for this?
Hotlink
Oct 24, 2007I use .htaccess to protect hotlinking of photos on one of my sites and it works well. I am having a problem with a myspace kid. About a year ago he tried to hotlink to a photo on my site but screwed up the html so its looking for a file that isn't there.
In the beginning I figure he would fix it, hasn't happened. I sent him a message asking him to fix it, he hasn't.
Im tired of his myspace traffic showing up in my error logs.
The file name his site is looking for is PeterForsberg.jpg%3E%3C/img%3E%3C/td%3E%3C/tr%3E%3Cscript%20language=
I dont know how to format an entry into .htaccess to get his screwed up code to display my hotlink image.
Hotlink Momery Used +80%
Aug 3, 2008I have got the problem that before 3 days some body who's site traffic is very high hotlink some images from my site which cause my server memory and bandwidth using too much due to that my server not working properly and extreme slow.
I have then immediately protect the Hotlink after that my bandwidth is not using more but the images which he has hotlink their request are coming too much and continued and my server still busy on that request and due to that server memory is still using too much.
I have checked it from top command and cpanel and apache status here I have found that Nobody user are hitting too much and using my server memory on alarming stage in cpanel CPU/Memory/MySQL Usage shows nobody used +90% memory. I have also checked it on top command nobody user PID and I have match it with the apache status from cpanel then I have come to know that the request are coming from same site for hotlink images and these are using my server memory too much.
I have also block that site from htaccess but still these requesting coming continually.
Now my bandwidth is using normally but memory is still using very +80% much after doing all these action mentioned above. So, kindly tell me how can I block the requests coming from the site who hotlink images so that I can control my server memory to normal position.

1and1 For Use As A Hotlink Host?
Mar 20, 2009Does anyone have experiences with using 1and1 shared servers as a hotlink host?
I see they have a $4.99 plan that includes 120GB diskspace and 1200GB bandwidth.
To rehash my other thread (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=766602), I'm looking for a separate hosting account to store/hotlink some FLV files that will be used by my client's websites on other servers.
For those of you with experience with 1and1:
How much bandwidth/diskspace did you use?
Did your account ever get suspended for resource/bandwidth usage?
If so, how much were you using of what you were supposedly promised?
What was the performance of their shared servers?
Did you ever have a problem with downloads timing-out?
Look, I'm under no illusion that any company is going to let me use $100 worth of bandwidth for only $5 a month, but I'm not looking to use the whole 1200GB.
At most, I could see myself using less than half (~500GB) of what is offered in their package.
So from those with the experience, what is the verdict on using 1and1 in this manner?

DDoS Protection Or Not
Apr 24, 2008Is bound to happen to my server one day or another (get attacked). So I need help deciding whether to get a DDoS protection server now or later. Or pay as I go (I'll explain this in a bit).
First of all I am considering getting this because I want to use this server to hide the real source where people are downloading from. People connect only through FTP server and download. Of course if I give the real IP away I am subject to attack at anytime from anyone.
I think if I buy a server somewhere else and have people connect to there then that server will connect to the real server if I was to get attacked the server I bought "somewhere" else would only get attacked which would or would not be protected by a that special company who protects for these kind of things.
Only downside so far is I have been able to have the method above done. A person connects from one server which connects to the real server they will be downloading from BUT I use up to 2x bandwidth. Because when someone requests a file from server A...server B sends to server A then sends back to the user requesting it. A process that well works but anyone know if instead of sending back to Server A it will go directly to the user without exposing any info on the real server?
When I meant "pay as you go" I mean have a server with a DDoS protection company but don't get any protection until it happens rather than waiting on the last minute before switching to them (like adding new users now but those users knowing the real source).
These "users" downloading do about 106GB average. So you can see how big a downside is having to use 2x of bandwidth from the method I know above. The companies I am on do not have DDoS protection that I know of so I am forced to look for external companies to use to connect to the real source.
-So far everyone knows the real source IP but that is because I trust them. Anyone else is waiting to get on it and me looking for ways to put them on.
//hopefully you enjoyed my big paragraphs.
-And what kind of "protection" would I need if only FTP is being used since there is "specialized" kind of filtering on attacks.

Passowrd Protection
Apr 6, 2007wanting to password protect a directory and all FILES and DIRECTORIES under it as well.
I have tried the password protection system in plesk, simply put it doesnt work, sometimes it just doesnt restrict any access and the files can still be downloaded / accessed, and sometimes it asks for a password but even if typing the correct info it sais its a wrong password.
each time i setup the p/w i do it the exact same way, but its random about when it works and when it doesnt.
So, i tried the simple .htaccess way, and i still get the same problem. Can someone reccomend something to me? maybe a free php script that can do this? i need something fairly secure, doesnt need to be some super duper crazy script but at least so people cant just download the file containing the passwords and then they have access.
Apache 2.2 DDos Protection
Jun 13, 2008Anybody have good experiences with some software based Apache 2.2 ddos protection. Im trying to find something similar then mod_evasive.
It's just that evasive won't work with Apache 2.2. It actually works, but it does not do what it is supposed to do.
Have tryed many different configuration, but it just won't do it.
After Googling i found out that many have suffered same kind of experiences with mod_Evasive and Apache2.2
I guess it is not working cos we got Peruser there. http://www.telana.com/peruser.php
Means that there is many differend child processes and evasive don't share data between childs.
So suggest me something. This is coming on prodution server with hundreds of domains so it has to be stable, fast and rock solid.

So far I have been downloading the files to my computer first and scanning them, then approving them. it would be nice if I can automate this check some how. I'm wondering of anyone out there does this sort of thing with the dedicated servers they run. Maybe just putting virus software on the server is good enough.
