Php/Apache Ip Security

[asdasd]

Say I am limiting my includes folder to the localhost like so:

<Directory "/includes">
Order allow,deny
Allow from 192.168.1.0/24
Allow from 127
</Directory>

Would this prevent a php script from including a file in that directory for a web server request?

Nope - php includes don't look at htaccess or any apache directives, since they are file-based. Same goes for php command line script execution.

Lulz at your question :D

Unless you use php URL include http://, then it will go through apache and respect htaccess

It's to narrow attack vectors somewhat. Namely to prevent scanning, or bypassing the flow. Way I figure it, I will not have to regard whole directories as exposed, but more simply as referenced.
