.htaccess code - is it corect?

[funman]

Hello all!
I wanted to block 2 users from Rusia (I suppose they are the autors for a DDOS Atack) and I modified the .htaccess ...
Now, I ask you if this following code is corect because I modified it and I am affraid not to do a mistake:

IndexIgnore .....
<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from ... . ... . ... . ...
deny from ... . ... . ... . ...
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from ... . ... . ... . ...
deny from ... . ... . ... . ...
allow from all
</Limit>
AuthName ................
AuthUserFile
AuthGroupFile

Should here be with deny from all or without?
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from ... . ... . ... . ...
deny from ... . ... . ... . ...
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>

Thanks!!!

order allow,deny
deny from 123.45.6.7
deny from 012.34.5.6
allow from all

Just use this small code and you are done, put it in your website root.
Dont use "deny from all" you will end up with 300 or 500 error or with no connection.

i suggest you block all user from Rusia, Korea, China, Taiwan ... this located many spam and attacker

I have already block 2 hackers from Rusia (I will keep an eye on them if can enter my website again) but I don't know those countrys IP: where it beggins and where it's end. Example: Rusia -> starts 178 . --- . --- . --- ends 180 . --- . --- . ---
I will Google it to see what I can find!

BTW: can we make a thread somewhere in the forum where we can share those hackers IP so others know when they land on their sites ??
