allow,deny ...help

hello

I have a site that uses lots of video.. example files being somefile.flv, somefile.wmv, somefile.asf

I am trying to make it so only my website can use these files yet I cant seem to stop the video files using htaccess.. I was reading that changing this

Order allow,deny
Allow from all

to

# Order allow,deny
# Allow from all
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1

this could help .. my question is.. where do I change this?
the etc/apache2/apache2.conf file?

and how? do I use something like this?

<FilesMatch "\.(wmv|asf|asx|swf)$">
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</FilesMatch>

thanks for any help

 

You can put an .htaccess file like this into your video directory:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?myfirstsite.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?mysecondsite.net [NC]
RewriteRule \.(flv|wmv|asf)$ - [NC,F,L]

This would block all requests that don't come from myfirstsite.com or mysecondsite.net or have an empty referer.

 

thanks Falco.. that seemed to do the trick..you rock!
