I have came across site in my statistics that apperantly runs with about 99% of my content flash files. He put adsense all around them, too - sneaky.
I know it is possible to disable hotlinking from other sites using htaccess, but is it possible to disable hotlinking for ONE site? I need to block .swf that come from example.com domain.
I've tried a couple of different apps and solutions re hotlinking and IIS w/out finding a real winner. Hoping folks may have some recommendations re apps and/or solutions for dealing w/ hotlinking and IIS 6.
I have found some spammer hotlinking to my images to get his site crawled, I have modified the .htaccess to attempt and serve his hotlinking domain with a warning but it does not work...
My actual .htaccess file is the one below (it was created by wordpress automatically):
# BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule>
I dont kmow too much what I am doing, following the tutorial here, http://altlab.com/htaccess_tutorial.html but the problem is that my .htacces already contains something created by wordpress that to me looks like garbage as I don't understand the meaning.
I dont know if I should add the lines inside the <IfModule mod_write.c> or outside them as I have done.
I dont know if it is ok to have two times Rewrite Engine On
PS: When I added the lines I describe above, my site also stopped displaying the images, I had stopped everyone including myself from hotlinking them. I only want to stop certain domain. or even better, my ideal solution is to WHITELIST my domain names (I have two using hotlinkg to those images), but I will settle for blacklist if it is easier.
I am looking for a content delivery network that will only serve files to a list of allowed hosts. This is such a basic "doh" feature, but nobody seems to have it (Mosso CloudFiles doesn't have it, and even Amazon S3 has no easy-to-use hotlink protection). Has anyone found such a CDN?
Is there a way to stop hotlinking? I have a client who has a blog. They have post pics of tattoos. Now there are at least 50 tattoo forums, blogs and other sites hotling to the pics. Now his bandwidth usage has skyrocketed. So enable hotlink protection in his cPanel. Just did a redirect to my main hosting site with a nice please stop hotlink image. Now I see all this in my logs. So I then made a 150 x 9000 clear BG gf with the text at the top please stop hotlinking.
My questions is there any way to stop it. If not should I just make a 1x1 clear gif to redirect to? Also is there a way to not have this traffic show in my log files?
I'm facing some issues with hotlinking here. the htaccess do not work because users can still use their download manager to download the file without going to my site.
I've seen few sites that got tempoary url that changes every X times and that support download manager.
I moved my website from one server to another just today and my site has a rank on another website. The ranking site lets me display my rank on my website through a hotlink to their site. When I moved my site to the new server, I can't see the image. On the old server, I could always see the image.
This is a strange issue since in Firefox, I see the image load and then it tells me the image is empty. But when I open the image's URL, I can see it just fine. I've reloaded the page over and over again, but I don't get anything. The same applies to IE.
What's even more strange is when I use a proxy, I can see the image just fine through my browser.
I am a graphic designer/photographer who creates designs for music artists, producers etc. on Myspace (I know, I know). This obviously involves lots of hotlinking, and that is why I am here.
I provide customers with hosting for their layouts so that they don't have to go out and search for one. I am currently hosting the images on a friends private server, but it's fairly slow and I want something more reliable. One layout usually has around 20 different images (background, headers, banners, etc) and I try to make sure it comes out to a little under 1MB, so I don't need to worry that much about disk space. I'd say bandwidth might be the only issue if anything.
I enjoy the work but it's mostly a side business and doesn't create much revenue, so I'm trying to go for around or under $10 a month. That said, I also want to make sure things are fast enough for the visitors and am willing to up the budget if required. I was going to go with 1and1 or Hostgator but heard alot about overselling.
The images I am trying to block are on page generated by a simple PHP script on my server. The offender has replicated what I am doing with ASP on their server. They are hotlinking to my images for the resulting page. They left my website's name on them, so they must think that giving credit is enough.
I'm going to be contacting them to stop but I also want to see if there is a way for me to prevent it from happening in the first place.
I know mod_rewrite works on my server because I've been using it for some other things.
However, whenever I enable the above code (add it to the directives and restart apache - have also tried just putting it in a .htaccess file in the appropriate directory), I end up with images still being allowed on my domain and the other domain I'm trying to stop from using my images. Do you think it could have to do with an absent referrer? I read that the code doesn't work if the referrer is blank. What else would cause this not to work? Obviously the domain would have to be correct, but it doesn't block from my domain OR the offending domain.
I tried another method:
Code: <FilesMatch ".(gif¦jpg¦png)$"> SetEnvIfNoCase Referer ^$ allow_image SetEnvIfNoCase Referer ^[url] allow_image Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from env=allow_image </FilesMatch>
This one blocked images to the offending domain, but it also blocked mine!
im currently looking for a mod that can cloak the real url adress to prevent hotlinking and havetempoary links which expires after x min and a new linkupdates
Attached is a (badly) drawn diagram of two sites, connected by a vpn.
The site to the left, is network 10.0.0.0/24 which runs a linux server as the router for the network.
The site to the right, is network 10.1.0.0/24 which runs a windows 2003 server as the router for the network.
Now, my problem is, the clients behind the windows 2003 server can ping any machine on the first network because i setup a static route to route all traffic to 10.0.0.0/24 over the vpn interface.
now, my problem is, only the linux server can ping any machine on the windows 2003 network, any client behind the linux server cant seem to route over the interface.
I have the following route on the linux server: .....
Starting point: a working site using a shared IPv4, dedicated IPv6, and SSL. HTTP and HTTPS work, the latter only using SNI of course.
The good news: If I simply allocate an IP resource of 1 to a subscription it is pulled from the pool, assigned to the service node, assigned to the web site, DNS is updated, and the site is automatically changed to using a Dedicated IPv4 and Dedicated IPv6.
The bad news: visitors land on the default web site of the service node, with the default SSL certificate.
Other info: I can't ping the new IP, even though it shows in "ip a l" and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0. [edited]
After the IP assignment, it is still installed, and /etc/httpd/conf/plesk.conf.d/ip_default/domainname.conf shows the new certificate is being used.
However, a second set of VirtualHost entries is created in server.conf for this IP for ports 80 and 443, with NameVirtualHost enabled on the new IP. The port 443 entry uses the default certificate. Apache's setup this default VirtualHost entry will override the web site configuration because Apache is listening on port 443 with the wrong cert.
If I go to "Change webspace settings" and toggle to Shared IPv4, Dedicated IPv6 the site works again via HTTPS, and Dedicated IPv4 and Dedicated IPv6 breaks it again. Setting the SSL cert to None and back again does not work.
Setting the SSL cert to None, changing to a dedicated IP, and enabling SSL results in the server being inexplicably inaccessible...browsers no longer connect to either the default site or the correct site, and I don't see any entries in the vhosts's logs.
I'm trying to build a distributed cluster of virtual hosts spanning the U.S.
My requirements for all of them are: 1. Very well connected - Tier 1 2. Able to run Gentoo Linux 3. OpenVZ/Virtuozzo/UML
I've got the southern half of the country covered. Can anyone refer me to such a provider in the northeast, anywhere above Washington; and another in the north-central cornfield states?
Is there any way to block a particular ISP? Have a visitor that changes IP hourly, but the IP always resolves back to a hostname like dsl.yuns.sksk.uk .
I have CSF installed. Any way to block all visitors from dsl.yuns.sksk.uk?
I'd like to know how I can use DNS to do something like make a CNAME record that points the same address to different addresses based on the port used.
mail.example.org on port 80 points to ghs.google.com mail.example.org on port 995 points to pop.gmail.com mail.example.org on port 587 poitns to smtp.gmail.com
I own a Limited company in the UK and we are looking for a Dedicated server to put our shoutcast services on.
So far I have the following deal:
Quad Core Q6600 (4x 2.4Ghz) 2GB RAM 2x 250GB SATAII HDDs in RAID Full Root Access 5TB Bandwidth per month 100Mbit network port (fully burstable) £99.99 + VAT Free setup 1 Month contract (30 Days Notice for Cancelation)
I am looking for a better deal than this with a reliable and well known supplier. We are a expanding company offering not only shoutcast but web hosting, web design and broadband.
The canditate host needs to be reliable and well known who can support us with no/little fees if we go over our alocated ammount.
If the host lives up to expectations there are future company prospects and business. We are looking for a 1 month contract as we have with long term intentions in mind should all be well with the host.
I have a customer that uses a blackberry and of course, he wants his email to be delivered in the BB, so is there any previous config or a specific port that needs to be opened, or anything else on the server?...please i have no idea about that x_X
i have a WHM/Cpanel on a Centos 5.1 and i work with exim
I'm currently hosted on a friends VPS, and he has been good enough to give me his root access account details so I can mess with things if I need to. Good thing he has, too... Because I'm about to need to really mess with some things.
I've hit a brick wall, however.
The VPS is currently running php 4.3, but the CMS software that I am going to use to run my site requires PHP 5. Now, I don't want to arbitrarily update to php5 across the whole VPS, cause I dont know if thats going to knock out scripts on other vhosts. I read about the "run php5 as cgi" thing, but that doesnt really work for me, as the cms I am using has some quite in-depth url rewriting going on, and I dont want to have to make all of the php files for it end with .php5, in case that screws something up.
So, in my research, I came accross this:
wiki.apache.org/httpd/PHP4AndPHP5
The article on the apache wiki refers to a way of setting up a private server, or a VPS in this case, so that an individual vhost will use php5 as opposed to the default php4. "Great", I think... But then after loggin in to the shell and downloading the php-5.2.5 binary, I realised I dont have the first clue how I can install this, without it conflicting with the current PHP4 install, and so that it pick up on things like mySQL, and all the other libraries (gd, libxslt etc).
So, I guess my question is, does anyone know how I can accomplish this? I'm sorry if this isnt the right forum, I put it in the place that made most sense to me... Any help would be gratefully received, as I'm completely dumbfounded right now!
