What does the ip inside .htaccess means?
i see these stuff like

Deny from IP......
Deny from IP.....


Like 8 of them
does it mean, those ip who visit the link will show invalid links?
such as meaning their ban from the server/site ?
 
It means that that IP can't access that directory(the directory the htaccess file is in) and any directories in that directory. They will be shown a 403 error saying they do not have permission to view that page/site.

They get added their either because you added them directly to the htaccess file (which i doubt you did otherwise you would know) or if you block an ip using cPanels IP deny section. That basically edits the htaccess file for you.
 
Hello,
Folwer, every forum should be happy to have you as an admin on their board lol ^_^.
REP+ & amazing explaination.
Well yeah i am more then positive ive never block any IP except one straight through the phpbb forum by banning their IP but other then that i've never ban any IP.

I'll get all of them removed in this case, btw banning them from the forum will also get the IP listed in .htacess right?

Nope, banning them on the forum is totally different to .htaccess bans.
 
Aw thanks
Yeah i've had no idea why that ban ip appear there but had them all fully removed.
Probably because of of some problem over my old host as they had problem lately.

Thanks so much for the support, you guys rock.
