====Restrict access to backend====
I wanted to restrict access to the administration backend to my LAN, so an outside user couldn't even get to the login page. To do this, I created an .htaccess file like this:
I wanted to restrict access to the administration backend to my LAN, so an outside user couldn't even get to the login page. To do this, I created a custom template fragment:
[root@e-smith html]# '''nano administrator/.htaccess'''
[root@e-smith ~]# '''mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf'''
[root@e-smith ~]# '''cd /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf'''
[root@e-smith httpd.conf]# '''nano -w 92Joomla'''
The contents of the file look like this:
The contents of the file look like this:
<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/'''joomla'''/html>
Order Deny,Allow
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Deny from all
Allow from 192.168.x.0/24
Allow from 192.168.x.0/24
</Directory>
You'll need to change the directory name to reflect your ibay name. Then, expand the template and restart Apache:
[root@e-smith httpd.conf]# '''expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf'''
[root@e-smith httpd.conf]# '''service httpd-e-smith restart'''
Restarting httpd-e-smith [ OK ]
