Please log in for more thread options It need not be easy. I don't mind having the large log files, I can delete
them. I just want to block those IP's to discourage wasting my bandwidth.
All I need to know is the correct way to do it. The one way that you
mentioned:
If you would just like to block certain IP address then leave selected
>> radio
>> button "Grant Access" and click on Add button. Now add all the IP
>> addresses
>> that you would like to block.
>>
is something I will try when I have restored with Ghost (in the process).
Gad, I love Ghost 10. :) Can't tell you the number of times it has 'saved my
hide'! But then again, I am religious about backing up, plus scheduling
after each change. Can slow one down, but worth it.
