I think you are looking for Require ip 127 or something like that.
Of course, thank you...
But I'm not sure why it is necessary.
We've always just used .example.com here, haven't we?
These were;
# Order deny,allow
# Deny from all
# Allow from .your_domain.com
which is slight different than saying .example.com to someone trying
to understand these modules.
I agree it would be better to omit it. It's misleading to say that
127.0.0.0/8 is sufficient to allow access from the local host anyway; on
any IPv6-enabled host you need to allow access from ::1 too.
Require ip 127 ::1 or whatnot then? Yes, this is a good point, perhaps
using localhost makes more sense (sure folks break that dns entry, but better
that, than to fight ip local syntaxes ;-)
If consensus says ignore this issue (default to allowing the admin to look at
their local machine's status) then I'll revert this commit rather than fix.
