This was done for one of our customers who used lighttpd to stream their videos. The problem was other users were directly downloading the content from the website, which is essentially considered leeching/hotlinking and in turn using up our client's bandwidth. To prevent this, we followed these steps:
1. Find the access IP that shows up in your lighttpd access_log (typically in /var/log/lighttpd). The IP will most likely be the main IP of your server/VPS.
2. With that IP, add the following code to your lighttpd.conf file:
Code:
$HTTP["remoteip"] == "1.1.1.1" {
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/videoimagefolder/" {
url.access-deny = ( ".flv, .jpg, .gif" )
}
}
Replace the IP with the IP you find your logs, the folder with the folder where your videos, images or whatever the content may be are located. Lastly, put in the extension of the files you'd like to prevent access to. So, if you only have flv files, just put ".flv" in there.
That should do it!
Hi Guys and Gals, I'll just say you all are top notch and go above and behind with support. I've tested many other companies none compare to the expertise you all. Previously I would just get a ticked bumped up to a higher level of tier support etc. with AYK everyone is knowledgeable and prompt. Thank you for offering a premium hosting solution. Warm Regards, Johnny
Simply the best. have been using them from last 2 years. Remember Dedicated servers are hardware so few times problem do arrive. but always fixed in time. Really really Positive attitude from President.
AYKsolutions - best solution for small/high business I have several plans with them and i can sleep well because their team watch over my servers. I started with a small shared account and now, after two years i have multiple dedicated boxes. I like the way they treat their customers, even if they have a small or a big plan. Their tehnical support is the best i ever meet ( worked with many hosting pro viders ). In one word: If you need cheap and no headache for your internet bussiness, AYKsolutions it's your best choice
