Restricting a Virtual Host to only a certain subnet/subnets

[terets]

Hi, Not sure if this has been done before, but I could not find a directive on it off of apache.org

I'd like to limit a virtual host to only be accessible by certain subnets. In this case, I have an app server that is accessing the apache server and I only want to allow the app server to access this virtual host.

They are both internet accessible, but the app server does the authentication.

I would appreciate any and all suggestions!

I guess you can do it using .htaccess. Create a file named .htaccess in your virtual server's docroot with something like this:

<limit GET>
deny from all
allow from 192.168.0.
allow from 192.168.1.
</limit>

use the subnets you want to allow access.
