Subdude2k, your answer finally does work. I really appreciate your posting this, as the SetEnvIf Referrer that Simon said would not work in the .htaccess file.
IMHO, every server admin should do this who is using a web based downloadurl that has bandwidth limits. One last answer that I confirmed works if you have multiple servers, you can define each IP on its own line. This is now my .htaccess file: SetEnvIfNoCase Referer ^hl2://64\.156\.56\.122 allow_download SetEnvIfNoCase Referer ^hl2://67\.18\.241\.74 allow_download SetEnvIfNoCase Referer ^hl2://67\.18\.241\.75 allow_download Order Deny,Allow Allow from env=allow_download Deny from all ----- Original Message ----- From: "Subdude2k" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2005 8:28 AM Subject: Re: [hlds] VALVe hide our sv_downloadurl paths!
The Referer works fine and has been doing so for a while now. I'm using .htaccess files on my Apache web server to only allow access to the hosted maps and files from our own CS Server. Here's the contents of my .htaccess file -- SetEnvIfNoCase Referer ^hl2://195\.20\.108\.36 allow_download Order Deny,Allow Allow from env=allow_download Deny from all -- HTH Subdude2k _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
