Admin Security | Must have

[litewarez]

heya just letting you know summat

if you have a admin folder then add this in there

AuthUserFile /dev/null
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Auth"
AuthType Basic
<LIMIT GET>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from X.X.X.X
allow from X.X.X.X
</LIMIT>

Change the X's to your ip and upload it any folder you want to secure apart from folders like css images only folders that are used for php includes

NOTE:
Remove the 2 ips lines if you want NO ONE to access the folder!

Peace and stay secure

Maybe because I do not want anything getting messed up and having to start all the hard work again all over. So you should stop accusing people of being stupid Seriously
