Hi Stephen,
I think I did not stated the problem correctly. Let me explain the issue: Say, my website www.mywebsite.com <http://www.mywebsite.com> is hosted on IP : 167.123.98.20 Now the Users could type in the IP address i.e. 167.123.98.20 and access my website as the server is listening at port 80. Now, if any user does that, I want to redirect the Users to www.mywebsite.com <http://www.mywebsite.com> . I don't want any User transaction to be done using 167.123.98.20. Therefore I had the following code in place. //If the User access my website using the IP address vcl_recv() { if(req.url ~ "167.123.98.20") { error 750 "Moved Permanently"; } } Redirect the user to www.mywebsite.com. sub vcl_error { if (obj.status == 750) { set req.http.X-REDIRURL = regsub(req.url,"https?://[^/$]+", " <http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmywebsite%2Ecom&urlhash=5 qRF&_t=tracking_anet> http://mywebsite.com";); set obj.http.Location = req.http.X-REDIRURL; set obj.status = 301; unset req.http.X-REDIRURL; return(deliver); } I hope I clarified the issue.

You'll need to do the blocking on the sub vcl_recv and not sub vcl_error. Here's an easy VCL config example: acl forbidden { "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"; "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"; } sub vcl_recv { # Prevent access from these hosts if (client.ip ~ forbidden) { error 403 "Forbidden"; } } Let me know if you have any other questions.

I have the following code in place but it is not working. In vcl_recv() { if(req.url ~ "XX.XX.XXX.XXX") { error 750 "Moved Permanently"; } } And in vcl_error() sub vcl_error { if (obj.status == 750) { set req.http.X-REDIRURL = regsub(req.url,"https?://[^/$]+", " <http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmywebsite%2Ecom&urlhash=5 qRF&_t=tracking_anet> http://mywebsite.com";); set obj.http.Location = req.http.X-REDIRURL; set obj.status = 301; unset req.http.X-REDIRURL; return(deliver); } But this does not redirect the user to the website, instead it delivers the page. Can anyone tell what I am missing?
