I found this article from a Norwegian school about setting up your WWW Server.


You can also speed up sites with .htaccess caching .

No comments on this important topic.

When you are working on a new site, you may want to restrict access to your own IP address, so no other can view your site. This is easily done by putting the following lines in your .htaccess file:

order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from yourIP

Then it is easy to add friends to that list by allowing their IP's.

I do it on a new site, http://www.ad2no.com/

Can you see it?

There has been so much spam on ForumNorway.com :: Index so I had to close it so only moderators can post there and read some important posts. Spammers shall not get everything for free.

May be I should do the same there and open up for IP's that is not identified as forum spammers. Do WPW members have any suggestions?

I think the alternative is to have it restricted as it is today but getting more and more members of all categories.
