If you want to exclude accesses to the /staff/ folder, then use FILEEXCLUDE /staff/*. If you have HOSTEXCLUDE 10.0.0.* and you see requests to /staff/, that doesn't mean that HOSTEXCLUDE is broken, it means that someone outside 10.0.0.* is accesing /staff/ If you want to find out who is accessing the /staff/ folder from an IP address outside 10.0.0.* (because somebody is!), then use HOSTEXCLUDE 10.0.0.* FILEINCLUDE /staff/* HOST ON and look in the Host Report. (It might be a good idea to switch to OUTPUT HTML while you're trouble-shooting).
