    Anti Hotlinking script - help please

    Does anybody know how to disable the AHL script on a server? I've contacted my host and AHL support so I expect a resolution in the morning but if anybody knows how to do it, I wouldn't mind disabling sooner than later as a temporary solution

    Edit the ahl.conf file...it's set to protect certain extension, so just delete all the extensions...that should work

        Why do you need to disable it?

          this is what's in the ahl.conf file:

          ########### AHL Configuration File ############

          TIMEOUT=3600
          LOG_HOTLINKS=0
          DENY_FILE_LOCATION=/deny.html
          ALLOWED_REFERERS=yourdomain1.com,yourdomain2.com,y ourdomain3.com
          PAGE_EXTENTIONS=.html,.htm,.shtml,.php,.cgi
          PROTECTED_EXTENTIONS=.asf,.wmv,.avi,.mov,.mpg,.mpe g,.rm

          i know that AHL is working on my server, but this can't be the right config file, can it?

          where would i be able to find the httpd.conf file?

          i want it disabled temporarily to figure out what's slowing my server down to a crawl. it was upgraded to the new version a few days ago and since then _something_ has gone wrong. not sure what exactly, so here goes the process of elimination

            locate httpd.conf - to find it

            comment out for the virtual host thats protected

            RewriteEngine on
            RewriteOptions inherit

            that should do it

              Ah. We had a problem with it slowing the server too but that was with the 1st version.
