AVS Question: .htaccess

[Turboface]

Hey guys,

I've built an AVS site that I am now making different mirrors of so I can use different AVS systems with it. I am using a common members area.

How does this work with the different htaccess files I get from the AVS systems?

Here is the htaccess file to protect my site for FNP:


AuthUserFile /dev/null
AuthGroupFile /dev/null

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.impurethoughts.com/hustler/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://impurethoughts.com/hustler/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.freenetpass.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://freenetpass.com/ [NC]
RewriteRule /* http://www.impurethoughts.com/hustler/ [R,L]



and here is the htaccess file for SexyAVS:


RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://([a-z0-9-]+\.)*http://impurethoughts.com/hustler/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://([a-z0-9-]+\.)*sexyavs.com/ [NC]

RewriteRule /* http://www.impurethoughts.com/hustler/ [R,L]


I guess I should combine them into one file, but can some one give me an example?


Thanks!

Thanks, man.

That's what I suspected, but I just wanted to be sure.

How does this work if I am submitting the site to new AVS systems? They're gonna want to see the members area before approving me - but they won't be able to see it if it's protected.

Any ideas?

I would assume that since you have access open for anything coming from thier domain that they would be able to get in, as long as they click the link within their admin panel it's going to be coming from their domain. So they shouldn't be blocked

Might want to leave out "RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://([a-z0-9-]+\.)*http://impurethoughts.com/hustler/ [NC]" since it's nonsense and will never match anything.

Also "RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://([a-z0-9-]+\.)*sexyavs.com/ [NC]" would match a referer from http://www.fakesexyavs.com/. It should read:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://([a-z0-9-]+)*\.sexyavs.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://sexyavs.com/ [NC]

Yes, this line is incorrect. It would be like this:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://([a-z0-9-]+\.)*freenetpass.com(:80)*/ [NC]

--Also, regarding your question about avs's reviewing your site with htaccess installed... As long as you have the avs as a valid referrer (sexyavs.com for example), the link to your members area from their admin section should work just fine. If it doesn't work for some reason, they will let you know ;)

...

Mmmm, that condition matches "http://www.myFAKEfreenetpass.com/".
The '\.' has to be pulled out from the '()*' if you want it to do what's necessary. Of course, when you do that, you also need the additional check for http://freenetpass.com/.

Ok, thanks guys for the input, but I am thoroughly confused now.
